Los Ángeles sits in Chile’s Central Valley in the Biobío Region, where the Andean foothills meet an agricultural plain crossed by the Biobío and Laja rivers. Founded in 1739 as Nuestra Señora de Los Ángeles, it developed as a Spanish frontier settlement during the colonial period. Today, the capital of Biobío Province is a commercial and service centre for surrounding farming and forestry districts. The waterfalls of Salto del Laja on the Laja River are among the region’s best-known excursions, while the Andes rise eastward toward Antuco Volcano and Laguna del Laja National Park.
