Valparaiso 2019, Chile. Best places to visit. (Many Rivers To Cross - Cafe del Mar)
Nicknamed The Jewel of the Pacific, Valparaíso was declared a world heritage site based upon its improvised urban design and unique architecture. In 1996, the World Monuments Fund declared Valparaíso's unusual system of funicular lifts (steeply inclined carriages) one of the world's 100 most endangered historical treasures. In 1998, grassroots activists convinced the Chilean government and local authorities to apply for UNESCO world heritage status for Valparaíso. Valparaíso was declared a World Heritage Site in 2003. Built upon dozens of steep hillsides overlooking the Pacific Ocean, Valparaíso has a labyrinth of streets and cobblestone alleyways, embodying a rich architectural and cultural legacy. Valparaíso is protected as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Things to do in Lima: El Circuito Mágico Del Agua (Video 29)
Hello everyone!
Isabelle and I decided to explore the center again the following day so we went to El Circuito Mágico Del Agua known as the Magic Water Circuit in English. It's another inexpensive and fun place to visit in the summer and it's great fun for children.
I hope you enjoy this video and that you decide to visit the park! :)

Magical Peru #1: Lima Highlights
We are starting out trip around Peru from the capital, Lima, the main entry point for foreigners arriving in Peru. Instead of going on a city tour, we walked a lot on our own. From Lima, we go to Trujillo, Huanchaco, Chiclayo, Arequipa, Chivay, Canyon de Colca, Puno, Lago Titicaca, Cusco, Valle Sagrado, Aguas Caliente and, of course, Machu Pichu. On the way we visited many archaeological sites and learnt about the ancient civilizations that made pre-Columbian Peru.

On this first video, we see only the highlights of our time in Lima. For the full story please watch the previous vlog Living in Lima, as we show places like the plazas in the city centre, the parks, the museums, the archaeological sites and even the Spanish school where we studied.
After departing Lima, we headed to the North Coast. From Trujillo we visited the cities of Huanchaco and Chiclayo, and the archaeological sites of Huaca de la Luna, Huaca del Sol, Chan Chan and the tomb of the Lord os Sipán, including their museums.
The exact places we visited in Lima were:
- Plaza San Martin
- Plaza Mayor (Armas) and the Old Town, including the government palace and churches
- Miraflores Clifftops & Larcomar Shopping Mall
- Museo de la Nacion
- Huaca Pucllana Archaeological Site
- Kennedy Park in Miraflores
- Museo Nacional de Arqueologia, Antropologia e Historia del Peru
- Circuito Magico del Agua
Após passar algumas semanas apenas em Lima estudando espanhol e conhecendo o que a capital peruana tem a oferecer, nós partimos para explorar o país. Começando pela região Norte, fomos até Trujillo, Chiclayo, Huanchaco, Huacas del Sol e de la Luna, Chan Chan e o sítio arqueológico da Tumba do Lorde Sipán. Depois, descemos pelo Sul do Perú e terminamos nossa jornada no interior, em Machu Pichu.

See Video Book's World Adventure Beginning Chapter #1: the Book's Concluding Summary Chapter #280: and Paul's World Commentaries:
Chapter 197 of 280 of Paul Hodge's November, 2012 video book How to Go Solo Around the World in 47 Days chronicles Paul's June 5, 2012 coverage of his adventure from London to Paris, France. After covering the Queen's procession, Paul was able to quickly upload to YouTube a video of the Queen's coach passing after which Paul made a mad dash by London tube to St. Pancras Railway Station to catch the 5:30 pm Eurostar high speed train to Paris. The 5:30 pm Eurostar high speed train to Paris goes at the top speed of 190 mph, takes about two hours and fifteen minutes, travels under the English Channel, covers about 307 miles traveling through one time zone and arrives in Paris around 8:47 pm at the Paris Gare du Nord railway station. See Video Book Trailer: and Paul's Commentaries:
Paul is one of the few people in this World to have explored and adventured around our planet three times in four years and twice in the last six months !!
Throughout his June, 2012, 40,000+ mile adventure, Paul penned incisive, compelling commentaries with fresh perspectives on the socio-economic & political challenges facing the diverse nations/cultures he explored. The commentaries will be expanded upon and incorporated in Paul's upcoming book, See Commentaries at:
Paul's June 2012 exploration is his third adventure around our planet. His second solo quest was six months ago ending November, 2011, See Trailer: and his first world exploration was for 7+ months ending July 2008, See Trailer:
On June 19, 2012, Paul returned from his 47 day solo adventure around our planet. The trip was fantastic because Paul covered seldom viewed events/sites such as riots and protests in Chile, Argentina & Spain, Soweto where South Africa's freedom movement began, gold machines in Abu Dhabi, Jerusalem/the West Bank & the Wailing Wall, the historic Egyptian Presidential elections, up close with Queen Elizabeth & her Diamond Jubilee celebration, the changing of the guard ceremony in Beijing's Tiananmen Square, the Great Wall and many other exciting seldom seen events.
This video book is Paul's second to chronicle his solo adventures around our planet. The book is intended to instruct viewers on how to go around the world solo. By providing the viewer with detailed videos and commentary of his recent June, 2012 World adventure, author Paul Hodge shows what it realistically takes to plan and successfully execute this life changing bucket list achievement.
Dans la ferveur de l'Estadio Nacional
Samedi 25 février 2017. La Universidad de Chile, club de football de Santiago, recevait Everton, dans le cadre du championnat chilien, tournoi de clôture. La « U » n’a pu faire mieux qu’un 0-0 sur sa pelouse de l’Estadio Nacional, malgré la ferveur des supporters qui n’ont cessé de donner de la voix durant quatre-vingt-dix minutes. Ambiance.
Pour aller plus loin :
- L’Estadio Nacional, un stade chargé d’histoire -
D’une capacité actuelle de 48 745 places, l’Estadio Nacional Julio Martínez Prádanos est la principale enceinte sportive du Chili, situé dans la commune de Ñuñoa à Santiago. Il a été inauguré en 1938 par le président de la République Arturo Alessandri Palma. En 1962, il a accueilli la finale du Mondial qui a vu le Brésil l’emporter face à la Tchécoslovaquie (3-1).
« Un peuple sans mémoire est un peuple sans futur »
L’Estadio Nacional a une importante valeur politique. Le stade a été utilisé comme camp de concentration entre septembre et novembre 1973, par la dictature d’Augusto Pinochet, suite au coup d’Etat du 11 septembre 1973. Environ 40 000 prisonniers ont été enfermés dans le stade, torturés et un grand nombre d’entre-eux ont été tués. Aujourd’hui, un mémorial, dans les gradins, rappelle la triste histoire des lieux. Pour ne jamais oublier. Avec comme inscription : « Un peuple sans mémoire est un peuple sans futur ».
Un match fantôme
C’est grâce au football que l’Estadio Nacional a cessé d’être un camp de prisonniers. C’était deux mois après le coup d’Etat, alors que le Chili devait affronter l’URSS en barrages du Mondial 1974. Afin que puisse se disputer la rencontre, les militaires ont évacué le stade et transporté les détenus vers d’autres camps. Pour rien finalement, car le match n’aura jamais lieu. Les Soviétiques ayant boycotté l’opposition. L’équipe nationale du Chili disputera malgré tout un match fantôme, sans adversaire. Le capitaine de la sélection, Chamaco Valdés, entrera seul dans le but, situé devant les gradins de la mémoire. En 2016, l’Estadio Nacional a été déclaré Monument Historique National.
Le savez-vous ? :
La Universidad de Chile, fondée en 1927, est le second club le plus titré en première division chilienne avec 17 championnats. En 2011, la « U » obtient son premier trophée international en remportant la Copa Sudamericana.
