Description

In a word, Valparaíso is colorful. Chile's second-largest city is known for its street art and eye-catching graffiti, and the rainbow of houses that dot its steep roads — among them a home owned by Nobel Prize-winning Chilean poet Pablo Neruda. If the incline becomes tiring, you can hop aboard one of Valparaíso's funiculars, which offer a new perspective on the maze-like geography. Neruda expressed his love for the city in the poem "Oda a Valparaíso," in which he observes how Valparaíso looks as if "life has always surprised [it]."
