ABUBUWAN DA ZA KU GUDU DAGA WANNAN LABARI:

Also in central Chile, I wouldn’t miss the city of Valparaiso, an hour and a half to two hours north of Santiago.
I like to go to the lakes district, like the town of Pucon, about an eight-hour drive south of Santiago.
Chileans love the beach, and places like Vina del Mar are close to Santiago, so they’re doable in a weekend or over a holiday.
