Built upon dozens of steep hillsides overlooking the Pacific Ocean, Valparaíso boasts a labyrinth of streets and cobblestone alleyways, embodying a rich architectural and cultural legacy. Nicknamed “The Jewel of the Pacific,” it was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site because of its improvised urban design and unique architecture. Founded in 1536, Valparaíso is one of Chile’s most important ports and the third-largest city. Valparaíso remains a source of inspiration for artists of all types, including the well-known Chilean poet Pablo Neruda. Students can visit Neruda’s seaside home in Valparaíso, and the Chilean Congress. Offering strikingly beautiful views from the top of its numerous hills, it is reminiscent of San Francisco. Valpo, in short, the city is where students can amble away an afternoon exploring its steep and winding streets, which are peppered with colorful houses, and admire the sparkling Pacific Ocean below. It is only a two-hour bus ride from Santiago, Chile’s capital city.
