    A rocky beach with some sweeping views. Do not approach the wildlife and be very careful about where you walk and stay on the trail

    We visited the garden on Christmas Eve, it was a beautiful day, not too hot. There were only about a dozen other guests that day and several of the amenities like the canopy zip lines and Laguna Cafe were closed. There were several families picnicking. The garden however was lovely.

    We loved the cactus areas, the sequoia trees and the Laguna area with the ducks and geese. So many lovely plants. It was a wonderful way to spend an early noon.

    The floral clock in Viña del Mar reminded me of the floral clock at Niagara Falls. It has the same red-green colour motif and so it felt like it's not really unique quite honestly.

    There were two carts that sell souvenirs while braving the elements though. I will give credit to that.

    It is very informative about indigenous tribes Mapuche, Rapanui, and others spread across Chile. Impressive display of unique artifacts is combined with thoughtful descriptions.

    Very cool public park with such a powerful statue available for all to visit. Signage to help share history is informative.

    The tour was informative and the restoration of this place is pretty amazing. I would definitely recommend getting on this tour if possible.

    We has some time to stroll Avenida Peru while touring around Valpo. It's not far from the city and offers nice views of the harbor and beach. There are a number of hotels and nice looking restaurants in the area. It's quite a bit cleaner than downtown Valpo.

    The place has a park that is very nice with some phrases from Neruda and Mistral.

    The castle is very nice howecer the Quinta Verga is not was I expected (as seen on tv) but in general was ok.

    No casinos in Santiago city. The casinos are in municipalities around the city to share the ‘revenue’ . Typical casino once inside

    There were quite a few wealthy people living in Vina del Mar at the beginning of the 20th century. Gustavo Wulff was a very successful trador both in saltpeter and coal. He migrated to Chile in 1881 and made his fortune. He was from Germany and he wanted his own castle. He hired an architect to do so. It went through several additions even including a bridge between towers. When Herr Wulff died, his daughter made some additional changes after World War II. She used the same architect to do so.
    The government eventually acquired the property and in 1995, it was pronounced a National Historical Monument by Chilean Law.
    There is a small museum there now which probably is not worth your time. This is a very nice photo opportunity though!

    This is the beach for everyone including the surfers. The undertow is quite strong and entire families have been pulled out to sea so be careful while you enjoy this beach

    massive, long beach with a cool pier at the start, if youre just looking to lie in the sun or play in the waves its a great place to have a beach day, if crowded in the high season
