Photos of Chile


The border between Argentina and Chile in the middle of the Andes mountain range.


A view of the 29 curves to descend from the mountainous border crossing from Argentina into Chile. Each of the curves are numbered and identified by yellow signs.


Another view of the 29 curves.


The beach at Vina del Mar.


A view of eastern Santiago from the cable chairs atop San Cristobal hill.



A statue of the Virgin Mary, atop San Cristobal hill overlooking Santiago.


Overlooking downtown Santiago from San Cristobal.



A Santiago office building at sunset.


The Atacama Desert in northern Chile, so dry that there aren't even desert brush plants.


The Inca ruins of Pukara, outside of San Pedro de Atacama.


Our spirit guide for the ruins.


Atop the highest point of the ruins, with the valley of the dead off to the lower right.
