Chile is the longest country in the world, stretching 2700 miles from north to south and sandwiched between the Andes mountains and Pacific ocean. From the cold, mountainous region of Patagonia in the south, up to the lush lake and wine regions of the central plains, to the inhospitable desert in the north, there is a place and activity for anyone visiting Chile. Travelers of all tastes and budgets are easily accommodated in the many hotels throughout Chile.(Ref.1)
