Photo of the Day – Vina del Mar, Chile
The beachside resort of Viña del Mar
Founded in 1874 as a weekend retreat for the wealthy elite from Santiago, most Chileans refer to the city simply as “Viña.” The golden beaches, manicured lawns and elegant resorts are a stark contrast to the nearby colorful but ramshackle town of Valparaiso. Both cities are easily reachable from Santiago via a 90-minute drive through Chile’s beautiful Casablanca wine region. But what’s the rush? Take your time on the drive and stop to taste some of Chile’s most famous exports.
