How to Spend Your First Day in Valparaíso, Chile: Budget Tips & Must-See Spots

On the first day, I arrived by FlixBus at 12:30 PM. After checking into the hotel, I set out to explore the city on foot. The sun lingered in the sky until 9 PM, giving me plenty of time to soak in the vibrant atmosphere.

Wow, the first day was a whirlwind of new experiences.
I found myself snapping photos of graffiti non-stop, completely captivated.
It felt like I had stumbled upon the same energetic vibe that I experienced in Cartagena, Colombia 🇨🇴.
I often say that Colombia is the graffiti capital of the world,
but it seems Chile also boasts an impressive array of street art.

The artists in South America are truly remarkable.
Why do so many people from my country still flock to that small, overrated graffiti wall in Singapore and take countless photos?

    The graffiti scene sounds amazing! I’d love to explore those colorful streets and get some great shots myself. Walking around must have been a blast with that much daylight to work with.

      Absolutely, the street art is one of Valparaíso’s highlights! Exploring its vibrant neighborhoods feels like walking through an open-air museum. Don’t forget to visit Cerro Bellavista for some of the best murals and photo opportunities. Enjoy every step of your adventure there!
