🎈From the vibrant streets of Santiago to the majestic landscapes of Torres del Paine National Park, and the enigmatic Easter Island, Chile is a treasure trove of experiences. Before you embark on your adventure, here’s what you need to know:
📄Chinese citizens with a valid US or Canada visa (excluding transit visas) that has more than six months of validity can enter Chile without a visa! 😎
🗣The official language of Chile is Spanish. While English is more commonly spoken in major tourist areas, it’s less prevalent in ordinary cities or non-tourist zones. Don’t worry, though—translation apps and body language can help bridge the gap!👌
🔌Chile uses 220V, 50Hz AC power. The outlets are European standard for two-prong plugs and Italian standard (Type-L) for three-prong plugs. Make sure to pack a power adapter to keep your devices charged!💡
❗A word of caution: Petty theft can be an issue in South American capitals, and Chile is no exception. In Santiago, be especially vigilant in tourist hotspots like Plaza de Armas, Central Market, and Santa Lucia Hill. Keep your belongings close!😯
