Valparaíso is a port city built on dozens of steep hills above the Pacific, covered with colorful houses and street art. Its historic quarter is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The hills
Cerro Alegre and Cerro Concepción are the most charming hills, with winding lanes, murals and viewpoints. Historic funiculars, some more than a hundred years old, carry people up the slopes.
The port
La Sebastiana, one of Pablo Neruda's houses, overlooks the bay. The port area has old buildings, and boats tour the harbor. Viña del Mar is next door.
