Half Day Temuco City Tour
Cost: $58.00Tour Length: Half Day
Activity Level: Easy to Moderate
Begin the city tour at Temuco’s Plaza de Armas, whose centerpiece is a monument to the city’s founding fathers. From here, continue to the railway station, the old business district, the “Feria Libre”, the city’s lively produce/craft market, and Nielol Hill Park, a thickly forested, historically important, 200-acre protected plot in the middle of Temuco. Climb to the summit of the hill for a grand view of the city and the Cautín River, then continue on to La Patagua, the very tree under which the Mapuches surrendered their land to the Chilean Army in 1881. Once outside the park, admire the mansions along Alemania Avenue en route to the La Araucanía Regional Museum, which contains a complete history of the area’s native peoples. Finish the day at the Municipal Market to buy art, confections, and other Mapuche products and specialties.
