Los Ángeles: Maria Dolores Airport 2
Los Ángeles straddles the broad agricultural plain between the Biobío and Laja rivers in Chile’s Biobío Region, a position that has made it a service centre for surrounding farming and forestry districts. Founded in 1739 as a Spanish frontier settlement, the city developed in an area long associated with Mapuche communities. It is now the capital of Biobío Province, concentrating commerce and public services for the inland district. The Andes rise farther east, while the wider plain is defined by cultivated land and extensive timber plantations. María Dolores Airport stands northwest of the urban centre.
