Museo Convento San Francisco y Catacumbas
This set of religious precincts, of neoclassical and baroque style, was erected in 1546. During the 17th century, the temple was the object of a series of arrangements and decorations that ended up turning it into a marvel of art in the viceregal era.
In 1655 an earthquake occurred in Lima that brought down the Franciscan temple, destroying its artistic riches, collapsing all the effort of a century.
The new temple was inaugurated in 1672, and repairs continued inside the convent until 1729.
Nowadays, the convent presents attractions, together with its remarkable courtyards and gardens, which are surrounded by arches with baseboards of Seville tiles.

Magic Water Circuit of the Reserve Park
The Parque de la Reserva was originally opened in 1929 to commemorate all the civilian reservists who fought in the defence of Lima during the War of the Pacific. But more than 65 years later, it became one of Lima's most visited tourist attractions.
In 2007 a water and light show called the Circuito Magico del Agua, The Magic Water Circuit, was inaugurated. It has the Guinness Book record for the largest fountain complex in the world, displaying 13 distinct fountains and many are interactive. All of the fountains are illuminated at night, many with continuously changing color schemes. A colorful laser light program synchronized with classical and Peruvian music makes the fountains sparkle and shine as the water flows in unique patterns and shapes.
