A visit to Valpraiso isn't complete without seeing Pablo Neruda's House. The Nobel Prize winning Chilean Poet! The house tour is a wonderful experience. In the war, his house was looted; however they have managed to get back a few of his belongings and put together a beautiful museum with a tour. A must visit! His love or art is evident from the things he collected throughout his life. And to top it, the view of Valparaiso from his bedroom is a cherry on the cake!
The streets of Valparaiso are full of Graffiti art. I spent the rest of the day walking, taking pictures in the street. I did get an impression that the city isn't that safe as it started to get dark. But the beautiful paintings on the wall, the multi-colored homes of Valparaiso, is something that will always remain with the tourist.
