It is often considered to be one of Latin America’s most intriguing urban areas and nicknamed “The Jewel of the Pacific”, Valparaíso was officially declared a ‘World Heritage Site’ based on its industrial heritage, improvised urban design, and unique architecture.

Wegbeschreibung

Getting to Valparaiso is quite easy. Due to its closeness to Santiago -115 kilometres- it is easily accessible overland. The trip lasts one and a half hours, and a large number of buses cover the route, making things easier. An alternative option is renting a car in Santiago and taking Ruta 68. You will get there faster.

Valparaiso Airport (VAP):

The city also has an airport, Mataveri International Airport, some 20 kilometres to the north, catering for all kinds of aircraft. Some companies have regular flights from Santiago and Papeete (Tahiti), as well as European cruisers dock at the port.

A new, regional Metro system updated parts of the railroad that joined Santiago and Valparaíso (and cities in between, finished in 1863). The new metro constitutes the so-called “fourth stage” (“Cuarta Etapa” in Spanish) of Metropolitan improvements. The metro railway extends along most of Gran Valparaíso and is the second metro system in operation in Chile (after Santiago’s) includes an underground section that crosses Viña del Mar’s downtown.
