At the top of Cerro Alegre you will find two things – Baburizza Palace and amazing views of the UNESCO World Heritage listed port city of Valparaíso on Paseo Yugoslavo.
Cerro Concepción is the hill in the UNESCO World Heritage listed port city of Valparaíso with the most attractions to see.
If you ride up Ascensor Reina Victoria towards the back of Cerro Concepción, there’s a path called Paseo Dimalow. It’s a very cool and artsy area with lots of graffiti, some great restaurants, and a few local shops. Not to mention, the view is phenomenal at all times of day. It’s my favorite path in the UNESCO World Heritage listed port city of Valparaíso.
The UNESCO World Heritage listed port city of Valparaíso is the graffiti capital of Chile. It’s got some of the best street art in South America. The murals I saw scattered throughout the city were very impressive. Some of them are easy to find while others are a bit out of the way. Many I saw are not included here:
Walking up and down the streets of Bellavista in Santiago is enough to keep someone busy for a couple hours. Not only are the buildings colorful, but there is impressive street art and eye-popping murals everywhere.
At Izmir’s opposite shore lies the suburb of Karşıyaka, which, coincidentally, means “Opposite Shore”. The Greeks called it Kordelio (Κορδελιό). It’s a nice, quiet area that has pretty much nothing interesting to deter visitors away from Izmir proper, unless you’re into historic Levantine homes. If you are, you’re in luck!
Chios Town (Χίος), also called Chora (Χώρα) or sometimes Kastro (Κάστρο), is the capital of Chios, Greece, and the main city on the island. There are several points of interest and historic sites, along with a beautiful harbor lined with restaurants and cafés that are full of life day and night.
Pyrgi (Πυργί) is a medieval village in Chios, Greece, famous for the black and white geometrical designs on the buildings called xysta. Wandering through the narrow streets will leave you mesmerized by the designs. The village is located in the southern half of the island.
