Chile

Among the countries of South America, Chile stands out for its exceptional north-to-south extent between the Andes and the Pacific Ocean. The Atacama Desert in the north is one of the driest places on Earth, while the south reaches into Patagonia, where Torres del Paine National Park is known for its jagged granite peaks, glaciers and lakes. Chile also includes Rapa Nui, the Pacific island famed for its monumental moai statues. In Valparaíso, steep hills, funicular railways and colourful historic neighbourhoods reflect the country’s maritime past; its historic quarter is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
