Historic Quarter of the Seaport City of Valparaíso

🎧 Listen to Introduction
The colonial city of Valparaíso is an example of late 19th century urban and architectural development in Latin America. With its natural amphitheatre-like setting, the city is characterized by a vernacular urban structure adapted to the hillsides, which are dotted with a variety of church spires. This contrasts with the geometric layout adopted on the plains. The city has well preserved interesting early industrial infrastructure, such as the numerous "elevators" on the steep hillsides.
