Valparaíso is located at 120 km (75 miles) to the Northwest of Santiago, in the fifth region. It is the regional and legislative capital of the country. Its origins date back from 1536, and its port is one of the most important of the Pacific Ocean.

It's one of Chile's more colorful cities, with its narrow stone streets, its houses built on its 45 hills, and its old funiculars. Birthplace of the nation's political power, it has been declared a World Heritage site by UNESCO.

Viña del Mar is known as the Garden City due to its beautiful parks and gardens. Main seaside resort of the country, it is well-known for its splendid architecture, beaches, casino, palaces and modern buildings.

You will enjoy the diverse local cuisine, as well as appreciate the lapis lazuli pieces, a precious mineral stone that only exists in Chile and Afghanistan.
