Pablo Neruda is one of our Nobel laureates in literature known for his great poetry, so I recommended last place you visit in Santiago of Chile is "Casa la Chascona" The Chascona Pablo Neruda is located on a hillside of Cerro San Cristobal. This is the house where he spent his years Pablo Neruda. This house stands beside a waterfall, outlines the magic of the great poet. It is a unique house that has been designed only by an artist like Pablo Neruda and is manufactured using carefully selected materials. For poetry lovers this is a unique place worth visiting.
