; Jirón de la Unión 1030; admission S10; 9am-6pm, closed Tue)
Housed in a pristine 19th-century mansion with Spanish-tile floors, this worthwhile
private museum showcases a vast collection of minerals, as well as breathtakingly dis-
played Nazca textiles and Chancay pottery.
EL CIRCUITO MÁGICO DEL AGUA
(Parque de la Reserva, Av Petit Thouars, cuadra 5; admission S4; 4-10pm)
An indulgent series of
fountains so over-the-top it can't help but induce stupefaction even among the most
hardened traveling cynic. A dozen different fountains - all splendiferously illuminated -
are capped, at the end, by a laser light show at the 120m-long Fuente de la Fantasía
(Fantasy Fountain). The whole display is set to a medley of Peruvian folk music.
