Itinerary and highlights

At the plant itself, be enchanted with the energy that comes out of the huge turbines in the dam's enlightenment. Before firing of lights, two presenters and a video shown on big screens tell the story of hydropower and translate into significant numbers. Suddenly, in the darkness, the concrete dam is illuminated by 747 floodlights and 112 light fixtures. A soundtrack created specially for this presentation, goes in perfect sync with the lighting of lights. The tourist follows the presentation of the central gazebo, from where you can see the operation of the plant during the day.
