 Live Travel Guides: Valdivia
Long a vital river port and crucial military garrison, both for Spain as the colonial power and for Chile as a young nation, Valdívia (vahl-DEE'-vee-yah, 840 km south of Santiago) is today one of Chile's most favored, albeit undersung, cities.
As elsewhere throughout southern Chile, Valdívia's German heritage is readily apparent, in the architecture of its older buildings as well as in its cuisine, such as that offered at the kleine Café Hausmann, and above all, in its uncommonly fine beer, brewed and served with artery-blocking wursts as the nationally-renowned Cervecería Kunstmann.
Birding is as big in Chile's central regions as it is in the far north and south.
