Well,dear friend, Carretera Austral is a remoted exotic place. It lies in the southern hemisphere and if you insist I am going to be more specific: it is in the Chilean Patagonia. It is build to a high altitude, in the Andes, and offers some unique landscapes.

Carretera Austral is 1200 km long, and mostly unpaved still today, 30 years after the beginning of its construction by the former Chilean dictator Pinochet. To make yourself an idea about the dimensions of this stone desert imagine one simple thing: Carretera Austral facilitates civilization access for 100 000 people! Maybe this makes it finally provocative to you!

Vina del Mar is Chile’s most attractive touristic destination. The Chilean are very proud about their Vina, and with a good reason. One month ago Vina del Mar hosted the G20 summit, which was focused on the today global crisis. That means a lot: world’s most powerful leaders joined in a spectacular destination. And they were very happy in Vina del Mar for sure! It remains only to hope that they met the best decisions for our future.
Exquisite hotels in Vina del Mar
Vina del Mar means in Spanish “the vineyard of the coast”. All around there are unending vineyards, and you can taste the result in the many gourmet restaurants of Vina del Mar. Start with the Cabernet and Pinot gris, they are simply fantastic!

If saw, visited and experimented already Sahara desert or the Death Valley inU.S. you must have been impressed about the tough conditions of life there, due to the extreme lack of moisture. Nevertheless, the world’d driest region is the Atacama Desert, lieing on the Pacific Coast of Chile, and bordering also Peru and Bolivia.
I found Atacama desert amazing and worth to be visited. It really looks like the Planet Mars. It would be something really extraordinary feeling yourself like being on the Mars, but I don’t think you can during this life. Much easier, go and visit Atacama Desert, the soil and the climate is very similar to Mars! NASA performs tests of its extraterestrial vehicles in the Atacama Desert. There are more telescopes in the Atacama Desert (there are no raining clouds there!).
Ooh, the flavor. And, oh my, the aroma. The wonderful food fare offered up in Santiago restaurants include so many different cultures. From European and North American to the ocean. Santiago restaurants offer its customers an opportunity to combine the flavor of the city with the flavor of the food. It doesn’t matter that Santiago is just another city in Chile. Not at all. This city is on the verge of something big and it has everything to do with the atmosphere, the friendly residents and the wonderful food that can only be found in Santiago restaurants.
Looking for something nice, Santiago restaurants that are some of the best in the city? Then try Madro Al or Mare Nostrum. Both of these Santiago restaurants offer a South American or Spanish flavor. When in Santiago, you should try a little of everything at the Santiago restaurants. They have restaurants for all budgets and all tastes, but what is the point of going somewhere different if everything you do is going to be the same?
Planning a vacation to Santiago? Too many hotels to choose from? On the internet you can find review after review for great hotels, but really, which one do you pick? All of the Santiago Hotels sound so good. Of course, when you are looking at Santiago hotels, you are going to consider the price, or maybe the accommodations or possibly even the location. Besides Santiago hotels you can probably rent out villas or condominiums.
Well, don’t let that stop you from choosing one of the many Santiago hotels at your disposal. You have your choice of cheap and small, large and ornate or even familiar chain hotels. Santiago hotels boast some of the most beautiful hotels in Chile, with European architecture or the ever present chains of American hotels that are found in most cities.
