Meander Through a Museum
The two museums in Chile are well-worth the trip.
Meander Through a Museum
La Serena is home to two main museums. The Archaeological Museum of La Serena uses thousands of artifacts to tell a chronological account of the region from the prehistoric era to European arrival. Meanwhile, Museo Histórico Casa Gabriel González Videla is named after Chile's former president and La Serena resident. It houses Videla displays, historic artifacts and modern art.
Compare and Contrast Churches
One of the best things to do in La Serena (Coquimbo), Chile, is to visit one of its staggering 29 stone churches. Built in the early 17th century, Iglesia San Francisco is one of the city's oldest churches, with an ornate Baroque facade. Other highlights include Iglesia Santa Domingo's iconic bell tower and neoclassical Iglesia Cathedral, with its religious art museum.
LOCAL CUISINE
Don't miss experiencing Caleta San Pedro, an oceanfront lineup of 10 restaurants that specialize in seafood.
