About the City
Lively beaches, shady parks and numerous palaces from the early days give Viña del Mar a very special flair. The city was once a popular health resort and is now one of the most popular vacation destinations in South America. The numerous parks and green spaces gave Viña del Mar the name “The Garden City”. You can stretch your legs or just enjoy the view of the sea along the extensive beach promenades. The city has a lot to offer culturally.
Every February the international song festival takes place with international stars such as Ricci Martin, Bryan Adams or Daddy Yankee. Most of South America’s celebrities gather in Viña del Mar for the song festival. Other major events are the international ATP tennis tournament or a horse race based on the British model with a tradition going back more than 100 years. The theater in Viña del Mar has special activities and shows every month for theater lovers.
Sights in Viña del Mar include the flower clock, the old castles, the casino or the palm-lined promenade. You shouldn’t miss the Quinta Vergara Park and the Botanical Garden either. The picturesque port town of Valparaíso, the beach town of Reñaca, the beach house of the Nobel Prize winner Pablo Neruda in Isla Negra or the dreamy coastal town of Quintay are well worth seeing and are in the immediate vicinity.
