The thinnest country in the world, Chile has pretty much anything a traveler could wish for, from mountains and lakes to deserts and forests, beaches and glaciers.

You can take a trip south and visit the penguin colonies on the islands near the Straits of Magellan or explore the Arctic wild life in Patagonia, try out the ski resorts in Villarica or hike in the parks near Volcano Osorno.

For a taste of mystery and ancient civilizations, visit the Easter Island with its giant stone monoliths and look into the old traditions of wood carving, tattooing, dance and music of the Rapa Nui people.

And for a quick trip back to nowadays, browse the stylish streets of Santiago with their fine restaurants, trendy bars, cultural institutions and, briefly, the best nightlife of the country.
