Was told about this park by a ladie that sold us a fruit slurpee type refreshment at Park Amor. We went on our own by taxi, it was only 4 Soles to enter. We went at 9PM and felt very safe, lots of people there. Apparently it is place where families like to take pictures of their daughters in their... More

Beautiful, unique and wholesome for the whole family, definitely a go. Very clean place too, imagine Bellagio Las Vegas five times better and at least ten times more fountains. Light and water show lasts about 10-15 minutes every hour. Going with private tour so not sure how easy finding transport for the way back. More

Magic Water Circuit also known as Parque de Ajuas to the locals is something you must visit if you're in Lima. They have shows late at night, which consist of twirling water streams, lights and projected pictures that you can see on the water. There are smaller water gardens which are similar to spash pads. Local kids like to make... More

Just a bunch of fountains. Only one or two actually do "dance." I'd skip this if you have limited time in Lima, there's better stuff to see and do. More

The Magic Water Circuit is very recommendable. it is true, as others have mentioned, that there are crowds of people. However, it is worth it. You need to go wearing very casual clothes and preferably no jewellery, due to the number of people it is very easy not to notice the PICKPOCKETS. Just take a camera...The show starts around 7pm...

It wasn't in my agenda until I talked to other travelers while I am in Lima. We reached the park at 5:30pm when the sun is setting. There are about 10 different water fountains each have unique music and lights. It is just magical when the lights was turned on at night. It is worth taking a taxi to the... More

Park with 14 different fountains that change colors at night in a show of lights. One of them displayed holograms with folk dances, another was a tunnel which you could walk under. We took a Mirabus night tour for 65 soles (about 25 US dollars) which included the Historical Center and Miraflores highlights, but if you just want to go... More

We expected some fountains and classical music - this far exceeded our expectations with a laser and music presentation that blew us away! More

see it at night and be at the main fountain for 9:30. An amazing holographic show with music takes you through the several different dances, customes and music of Lima. Defintiely worth the trip to watch and hear this show. One the best I've seen around the around! More
