Very near Santiago (about 1.30 hour by bus), there are two beautiful cities next to the sea: Valparaiso and Viña del Mar. Notice that Valparaiso was declared by UNESCO “World Cultural Heritage”. Just in front of University of Santiago de Chile there is a Bus Station where you can take a bus to almost every city of our country. Buses to Viña del Mar or Valparaiso depart almost every 10 minutes.
