Norte Chico History

Easter Island ! Lovely tiny island somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean. Get a horse, do not rent a car! or bike around the island. It's so small. Enjoy the nature and the island mystics. There's only one supermarket/food store. Please check the expiring-dates of food. Its quiet common that some stuff are expired (like ketchup..hehe) don't worry, you won't die. There's only one flight a week. Try hang out with the locals (only 1000 people living there), hav fun with the kids on the island. Enjoy their hospitality and kindness. It's the most isolated island in this world with a fantastic history.

One of the best ways of seeing Valparaíso is through its funiculars. These constructions scattered around the entire natural amphitheater surrounding the city enable people to admire the huge bay and the strong contrast of the houses painted in shocking colors from the heights. From up there, eyes usually stop on the horizon that dies into the Pacific Ocean.

There are twenty-two funiculars in Valparaíso. Here we present the main features of the most emblematic ones, whether for their history, their names or maybe because they are usually mentioned in poems or songs that refer to this particular city. We recommend that you tour around Valparaíso with all your senses by using the funiculars. It will be an unforgettable experience.
