Top Culture in Valparaiso

Bring a little snack and a drink with you! The place is stunning, and there are some nice spots to sit outside and enjoy a break with a view.

If you’re into souvenirs, definitely check out the gift shop. They have unique items inspired by Neruda and the sea, but keep an eye on prices – some stuff is a bit steep!

Try to visit on a weekday, like Tuesday or Wednesday - it's way less crowded. I did this and enjoyed the peace while exploring the house.

I recommend taking the local bus or a shared taxi to save money on transport. Parking can be a pain, and the neighborhood is a bit hilly!

My advice is to check out the quirky café inside the palace. It's got some great local pastries that aren't too pricy. I totally regret not trying the humita when I was there!
