The history of the fountain complex
The park of fountains is located in the heart of Lima in the park de la Reserva, which was opened in 1929. The Parque de la Reserva is divided into an area of 8 hectares. Above his creation worked French architect Claude Sahut, who used the techniques of neo-classical style. Park de la Reserva was built in gratitude to the soldiers who defended the Peruvian capital during the Pacific War of 1881. In 2007, on the territory of the Park de la Reserva, a fountain complex was opened called "The Magic Circulation of Water", which is currently the record holder of the Guinness Book.
Features of the fountain complex
The construction of the fountain park in Peru was spent $ 13 million, which is why the mayor of the city, Luis Castaneda Lossio, was sharply criticized. But despite this, in the first year the park was visited by 2 million tourists. And until now the park of fountains remains the visiting card of Lima. It is interesting because it includes 13 fountains, some of which work on the basis of interactive technologies. The most visited of them are:
- fountain "Fantasy";
- "Magic" fountain;
- fountain "Tunnel de las Sorpresas";
- fountain "Tunnel de los Ninhos.
Pressure in the "Magic" fountain is so strong that jets of water are thrown out to a height of more than 80 meters. The musical fountain "Fantasy" is interesting because in it water beats in time with the produced music, depicting a kind of dance.
Incredible sensations can be experienced while passing through the tunnel of de las Sopresas, whose length reaches 35 meters. The Fuente de los Ninho tunnel is the link between the central part of the fountain park and the square on which other interesting projects of Lima are exhibited.
Every evening at 19:15, 20:15 and 21:30 in the park of fountains begins to be a real magic, called Circuitos Magigos del Agua. It's not even a laser show, but a whole musical performance that will please every spectator. To appreciate all the advantages of a park of fountains in Lima and enjoy all the delights of a laser show, it's better to come here long before it starts.

The fountain park is located in the heart of the city of Lima - between Arequipa avenue and the Paseo de la Republica motorway. You can reach it by taxi or by public transport to Estadio Nacional (National Stadium).
