Question

Can someone please tell me at least three historic sites in Chile ?

Answer 1

Manzana de las Luces, Buenos Aires: The Manzana de las Luces (Block of Lights) served as the intellectual center of the city in the 17th and 18th centuries. This land was granted in 1616 to the Jesuits, who built San Ignacio -- the city's oldest church -- still standing at the corner of Bolívar and Aslina streets. Worth a visit to see the beautiful altar.

Teatro Colón, Buenos Aires: The majestic Teatro Colón, completed in 1908, combines a variety of European styles, from the Ionic and Corinthian capitals and French stained-glass pieces in the main entrance to the Italian marble staircase and exquisite French furniture, chandeliers, and vases in the Golden Hall. The Colón has hosted the world's most important opera singers.

Tiwanaku, Bolivia: The Tiwanaku lived in Bolivia from 1600 B.C. to A.D. 1200. Visit the Tiwanaku archaeological site, which is about 2 hours from La Paz, and you'll see proof of some of the amazing feats of this pre-Columbian culture. The stone-carved Sun Gate could gauge the position of the sun. The technologically advanced irrigation system transformed this barren terrain into viable farmland. The enormous and intricately designed stone-carved monoliths found here give testament to the amazing artistic talents of these people. Much here still remains a mystery, but when you walk around the site, it's exciting to imagine what life must have been like here for the Tiwanaku.

Answer 2

Hello!

Well, I'm from Chile, and I'll try to answer to your ask: "historic sites in Chile":

I have just a little of time, so I'll be brief.

1.- "El Morro de Arica". Is one of the most distinctive icons of the city, it can be seen from almost any corner of the city. It's the historic site of the glorious and bloody battle of the 7th of June 1880. It is a proud reminder for both chilean and peruvians who's ancesters fought bravely on this site.

2.- "Oficina Salitrera Humberstone" (Nitrate Office Humberstone"). In 1930 Chile was the first producer of nitrate in the world. After, the Germans did create the synthethic nitrate, and the Chile source of wealth was over. It was declared National Monument in January of 1970. (Ubicated 52 kms. of Iquique).

3.- "El Palacio de la Moneda". Is the residence of work of the President. Ubicated in Santiago. Was builted between 1784 (by Toesca) and 1805 (by Cavallero).

4.- "Valparaíso". On July 2nd 2003, was declared a part of World Cultural Heritage by the United Nations Education, Science and Culture Organization (UNESCO). It was also named as the cultural capital of Chile on May 6th of the same year.

5.- "Reliquia Histórica Monitor Huáscar". In 1864, Peru requested England to construct an armored ship. Baptized “Huáscar” in homage to an Inca Chief, she belonged to Peru until October 8,1879, date in which she was captured by the Chilean Navy during the Angamos Naval Combat. Today is the floating museum more old of the world. It's ubicated in Talcahuano.

(If you decide to come here, I can go with you, because I live in Talcahuano!)

Well, I hope it helps.

Good bye, and "buen viaje"!!!

Greetings from Chile. Fabián.
