Photos of Valparaiso at Night – Chile

The hills of Valparaiso at night

The Valparaiso waterfront at night

The Valparaiso port at night

These photos were taken at dusk while we were waiting for the New Year’s Eve Fireworks Display in Valparaiso.

If you look careful, you will already see the streets lined with parked cars and people walking towards the main square (Plaza Sotomayor).

What do you think of Valparaíso?

Lovely photos, Rob. I know it’s just the street lighting, but it almost looks like the hills are covered in Christmas twinkle lights.

Thanks for that (even though I have just noticed how blue the first one is… hmmm).
They do look like Christmas lights. My favourite is flying over cities at night and looking at all the “Xmas lights” below.

I live in Vina, right next door to Valparaiso. Great pictures of the area. Chile is a great place but I need to work on my Spanish. I am taking classes online but Spanish in Chile is a bit different.

Fond memories of our NCL Sun cruise, San Francisco to Valpo, 2008. We love Chile and will return soon.
