Things to see and do Iquique

In Georgian style, the palace was built in 1904 for Saltpeter, Astoreca and Granja. As was the case with many wealthy homes, we used to build Oregon pine. Its façade, its large balconies, its stained stained glass windows, its sumptuous staircase which leads to the first floor and its vast outbuildings give this small palate a spectacular appearance. Currently, it serves as a cultural centre in the city and exhibits a collection of shells (over one thousand), antique furniture and paintings.

A museum dedicated to the indigenous peoples of the region and the épopée landscape. Its main archaeological collection comes from the Cerro Esmeralda; His most remarkable element is a Inca princess (1450-1500) mummified with her clothes. The museum also exhibits uniforms, weapons, documents and personal belongings of the Saltpeter magnat, Santiago Saltpeter. On the patio, the rebuilding of an indigenous house will delight children. Finally, on the Baquedano, a museum dependency hosts temporary exhibitions. The whole one deserves a visit.
