Valparaiso and Arte Urbano

About 2 weeks ago, we visited a place 1.5 hours west of Santiago, Chile. We had heard that it was not to be missed so we decided to go... The neighborhoods are made up of colorful houses, one stacked upon another strategically placed on cerros (hills) that surround the city at the bottom. Here is a small peek at the houses and the beautiful street art that makes this town quite unique.

  1. is that their graffiti . . . damn, that is amazing . . . can't beat the gang-bangers of Chicago though :) . . . our city would be so much nicer if we had art like that all over as opposed to the territorial "piss on a wall" artwork that we are blessed with!

    Cheers Ladies!!!
