Chilean Pacific-coast resort city directly north of Valparaíso — known as the "Garden City" (Ciudad Jardín) and host of the annual International Song Festival. Avenida Perú (the seafront promenade), Playa Acapulco, and Reñaca (the residential-beach district 7km north) are the dense walkable cores. Chile DNV (no formal program; tourist visa 90 days + Temporary Residence renewable). The structural draws are Pacific-coastal climate (cool dry summers thanks to the Humboldt current, mild winters), Santiago-rail access (90min east), and Valparaíso-adjacent cultural-and-architectural depth. Summer tourist density is real January-February.
