Had to walk up instead, but really this cerro is worth a visit, in the day time, bc it is so distinct. I haven't seen this unique pueblo feel here in Valpo, aside from this area. Go. Cautiously.

This is a must when in Valparaiso. Although it is quite easy to get to the top of Cerro Alegre, the…read moreAscensor Peral (Funicular) is almost a right of passage when visiting for the first time. El Peral, one of the 16 "elevators" in the port town, connects the city below (in particular the "Plaza de Justicia" - where the monument of the naval warriors is located) to one of the most beautiful hills in Valparaiso (in my opinion). Opened to the public in 1901, what makes El Peral so important, is that it was the first steam powered "elevator" in all of Valparaiso (fun fact: because of this, it was also declared a national monument in all of Chile in 1998!) From the Plaza de Justicia, you arrive to the Paseo Yugoslavo (the main place to celebrate during the Valpo famous New Years), where you will have a breathtaking view of the colorful port town as well as direct access to the art museum, Palacio Baburriza. The best part is that it only costs 100 pesos to go up! This is especially useful if you are with young children or can't make the trip up for any reason.

Teníamos que esperar una guía para entrar pero tomamos lattes en su café por mientras que tiene un patio muy lindo y servicio atento. El tour era de 4 personas y la guía dejó comentarios interesantes aunque pareció un poco cansado de dar tours. Lo recomendaría para hacer un tour gratis, tomar un café, o caminar por su jardín lindo. A beautiful museum with very well preserved old furniture that makes you feel like you are walking through history as you explore the palace. We had to wait for a guide to go in but we had lattes at their cafe while we waited which had a beautiful patio and they give you delicious complimentary popcorn to snack on. The tour was just 4 people and the guide gave us interesting historical context, though she seemed somewhat uninterested in giving a tour. I recommend coming here for a guided tour, a coffee at their cafe, or just to walk around their garden on a sunny day.
