Our long and narrow country has been the cradle of talented and sensitive spirits who became world-class writers and who gave new life to words with extraordinary artistry. Poetry in particular has found fertile ground in Chile, where writers have left their mark until today.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We invite you on a poetic journey to understand how the Chilean landscapes helped to awaken the talent and inspiration in these poets, and also how their work influenced and left a mark on the places where they lived.

This small town was the first home where the poetess and Nobel Prize winner, <\/span><b>Gabriela Mistral<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, lived. She liked to say that she was born among thirty hills, because in fact this valley is surrounded by an extensive mountain range.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/chile-travel-static-content\/2021\/02\/museo-mistral-vicuna-1.jpg\" alt=\"museo-gabriela-mistral\" class=\"wp-image-68744\" title=\"museo-gabriela-mistral\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Photo: Chiletravel archive<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That&#8217;s right, the place where Gabriela Mistral took her first steps towards an intense, avant-garde and even somewhat controversial life was in Vicu\u00f1a. She was a diplomat and educator, but undoubtedly her greatest award was the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1945, leaving an everlasting mark on the valley where she was born.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you follow Gabriela&#8217;s footsteps to her home in Vicu\u00f1a, you will find a museum that has permanent and temporary exhibitions, as well as an important photographic and documentary collection with more than 4 thousand historical pieces that allow visitors to understand the work of one of the greatest poets in Chilean and Latin American literature.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/chile-travel-static-content\/2021\/02\/museo-gabriela-mistral-1.jpg\" alt=\"museo-gabriela-mistral\" class=\"wp-image-68738\" title=\"museo-gabriela-mistral\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Neruda\u2019s houses and collections<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From the warmth of the north, we now head to central Chile, to <\/span><b>Santiago<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, to visit the first of the three houses that our genius poet and Nobel Prize laureate <\/span><b>Pablo Neruda<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> had. He considered them his refuges to create, to love and to host long evenings of conversations and good eating with his friends.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the heart of the <\/span><b><i>Bellavista<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">neighborhood is the house Neruda named <\/span><b><i>La Chascona<\/i><\/b> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(&#8220;girl with messy hair&#8221;), a nickname that he used in honor of his beloved Matilde Urrutia. It is located at the foot of the San Cristobal Hill, set in a beautiful natural environment among trees, which at times make you forget that you&#8217;re in the middle of Chile&#8217;s capital city.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Pablo Neruda Foundation currently operates at this house that is an architectural extravaganza in itself and contains a large collection of the poet&#8217;s writings. Neruda&#8217;s desire to participate in and supervise the construction of this house was such that he personally had cypress trees cut and sent from southern Chile to design some unique elements that remain there to this day.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/chile-travel-static-content\/2021\/02\/casa-neruda-bellavista-1.jpg\" alt=\"la-chascona\" class=\"wp-image-68702\" title=\"la-chascona\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Poets&#8217; Coastline<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you continue along the coast of central Chile you will be able to find several inspiring places for those who love art and poetry.

This is where the visionary anti-poet, Nicanor Parra, moved like a fish in the water, or rather like a seagull on the beach.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Nicanor, as well as his sister Violeta, are considered creative geniuses. While she is recognized as an artist, artisan and folklorist, Nicanor excelled as an anti-poet who won the Cervantes Prize and was chosen as a candidate for the Nobel Prize in Literature on several occasions.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His first house in Las Cruces was known by neighbors as &#8220;La Pajarera&#8221; (the Birdhouse) and was later baptized by Parra as &#8220;El Castillo Negro&#8221; (The Black Castle). Unfortunately, the poet didn&#8217;t live in it because shortly after buying it, a mysterious fire quickly turned it into rubble. Years later, he acquired one of the neighboring houses, belonging to the Navarro family, where the anti-poet lived until before his death at the age of 103, and it is where he rests today.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/chile-travel-static-content\/2021\/02\/nicanor.jpg\" alt=\"nicanor-parra\" class=\"wp-image-68756\" title=\"nicanor-parra\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although &#8220;La Torre de M\u00e1rfil&#8221; (Ivory Tower), the name he gave his new house in Las Cruces, is not a museum open to the public &#8211; one of his grandchildren currently lives there- the town is worth visiting and walking through the small streets that inspired part of Parra&#8217;s work.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&#8220;&#8230;Open the tomb, at the bottom of this tomb you can see the sea.&#8221;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We are coming to the end of our Poets&#8217; Route.
