Our tour group of eleven led by Salvador Torres from Overseas Adventures Travel (OAT) went to the Magic Water Circuit at the Parque de la Reserva in Lima. It is recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records as the largest water fountain park in the world. The 13 fountains that are in play throughout the evening aren’t your typical fountains. They incorporate lights, music, and interactive elements, turning them into Las Vegas style showpieces for a fun night of entertainment.
There is the Magic Fountain, a classically elegant fountain illuminated in white light. It shot up and down, and is capable of reaching 80 metres high. Then, the Fantasy Fountain came into play, which involves colorful blasts of water spraying out of the 120 meter long fountain. As the water danced to music’s, the spouts change colors and shape, engaging the audience in a choreographed synchronized show. Laser and light projected scenes, images, and symbols of Peruvian culture, took us on a virtual tour of Peru. It surpassed all of our expectations of what a fantasy show would look like. Each fountain was unique, with different shapes, colors and music, and one that created “bubbles of illusion.” As we were slowly walking away to meet our driver, we saw a mother walking into the Walk in Dome while she held her child close to her chest, and easily dodging the choreography[hed sprays of water.
We then went to Cafe de la Paz at Kennedy Park in Parque in Mirafloresfor dinner.
