when we visit the main church in a capital city we expect it to have great art, wonderful sightlines, an altar complete with paintings and sculptures, large yet intricate stained glass pieces, murals and frescos on the interior ceiling or dome and a massive pipe organ. We expect this but some churches are just more awe -inspring than others. This cathedral has everything and more. Beautiful side chapels, carved pulpit and an open an airy feeling because of the interior height. Well worth the visit

Made entirely of wood, this striking church was designed by an Italian architect in a blend of Neo-Gothic and classic design.

This church is one of the UNESCO Chiloe churches and is really pretty. It has a bright yellow exterior and a fantastic wooden interior with a vaulted ceiling made using ship building techniques. It even takes the shape of an inverted ship's hull. Don't miss this church and as many other UNESCO churches as you can take in.

Took a short tour of the restored palace conducted by a few students. Nice to see investment in the history of Chile.

It is a functional watermill used to mill wheat to obtain flour, quinoa. It is difficult to get there if you are not driving your own car, so i highly recommend to take a cab to get there. The people who reside there, give a tour inside the watermill and teach the tourist what and how they produce it, you can buy their products only with $1000 Chilean pesos and you can enjoy a black bear (malta) with flour, a typical southern drink charging just $1500 Chilean pesos. You don't need to bring any special objects there, just comfortable shoes.
8. Biblioteca Santiago Severin
9. Palacio Valle
10. Edificio Luis Cousino
