Quilpue
South America is a continent situated in the western hemisphere and, mostly, the southern hemisphere, bordered on the west by the Pacific Ocean and on the north and east by the Atlantic Ocean, North America and the Caribbean Sea lie to the northwest. Chile, officially the Republic of Chile, is a country in South America occupying a long coastal strip between the Andes Mountains and the Pacific Ocean.
Quilpue is called by the locals Ciudad del Sol or Sunny City because compared to Valparaiso, which is only 30 minutes away, it has a lot more sunny days. It has excellent train, highway and road connections to Vina del Mar and Valparaiso. Since housing is cheaper in Quilpué, thousands of people commute every day to the coastal cities. Local attractions include a zoo, one of only three in Chile, and the rural settings of Colliguay and the Marga-Marga Valley, both with basic facilities for camping and hiking. The City Hall is located in Vicuna Mackenna.
The dense Amazon rainforest, the jagged spires of the Andes Mountains, the Tropical beaches and the Towering waterfalls, with this kind of nature all around, it's no wonder why South America have become nearly synonymous with Adventure travel and ecotourism.
