Chile - Wink Travel Guide

Chile narrowly stretches along the southern half of the west coast of South America, between the Andes and the Pacific Ocean. It is an amazing country, from the dry Atacama Desert to the cold of Chilean Patagonia.

High mountains are present everywhere in the country. On the Chilean mainland you can visit three UNESCO World Heritage Sites: Old Valparaíso, the Sewell mining town in Rancagua and the Humberstone and Santa Laura Saltpeter Works outside Iquique.

Just off the coast are the churches of Chiloe Island, and five and a half hours by plane across the Pacific Ocean will get you to maybe the most famous "Off the Beaten Path" destination in the world: Easter Island.

Wink Travel Guides introduce you to the best world travel destinations, in a clear and concise way, illustrated by photos.
