A major city and seaport, Valparaíso is the second largest metropolitan area in Chile, so there’s plenty to see and do should you decide to come and study here. The city also has a rich history and is home to Latin America’s oldest stock exchange and the oldest Spanish language newspaper still in continuous publication around the world. The city aims to be cycle-friendly, while funicular railways enable residents to access the more mountainous surrounding areas.
