Copiapó is a city in northern Chile’s Atacama Desert. It prospered after silver was found at nearby Chañarcillo in the 19th century. Landmarks from that period include the neoclassical Copiapó Cathedral, with a distinctive 3-tiered tower. Nearby, the Casa de los Hermanos Matta houses the Atacama Regional Museum with a collection of pre-Hispanic artifacts and exhibits on the area’s mining history.
Santiago, Chile’s capital and largest city, sits in a valley surrounded by the snow-capped Andes and the Chilean Coast Range. Plaza de Armas, the grand heart of the city’s old colonial core, is home to 2 neoclassical landmarks: the 1808 Palacio de la Real Audiencia, housing the National History Museum, and the 18th-century Metropolitan Cathedral.
