Vallenar is located 146 km away from Copiapó, it is the capital of the Huasco Province, in the Atacama Region. With narrow streets and colorful houses everywhere, Vallenar has a particular architectural style that makes it charming for those seeking history and tranquility in one place.
Despite the fact that agriculture has always been a livelihood for the natives of Vallenar, there is no doubt that the historical and economic development of the commune benefited from mining and the arrival of the railroad from Huasco in 1892, allowing a cultural and technological increase in Vallenar.
It should be noted that the Huasco River has been the center for the social and cultural development of the locals. In the past, the water source allowed agricultural production, while today it is a place of recreation for everyone. If you visit Vallenar you should enjoy an afternoon on the banks of the river and the vegetation around it, the locals also tend to bathe in the river, and make small campsites on the place, so it could be said that this river is the heart of the city. It is also recommended to visit La Casa de la Cultura, the Huasco Museum, the Hacienda de Atacama, and La Verbena Swimming Pools, which is another well-known place for recreation and outdoor activities. In Vallenar the list of pisqueras and handicrafts is long, so a cultural, artistic and fun tour is guaranteed.
