#16 of 101 in Things to do in Valparaiso

See a grand and touching tribute to those who fought and lost their lives in the War of the Pacific at Monumento a Los Heroes. Inaugurated in 1886, the memorial houses the remains of Captain Arturo Prat, a celebrated navy officer and one of Chile's national heroes. The white plinths and black statues neatly contrast one another, creating an arresting visual effect and drawing attention to the sacrifices of soldiers who perished during one of the most dramatic periods in South American history.

The Valley photo to guard this memory that is a monument to the heroes of the Navy who fought in the battles of Iquique and Punta Thick on May 21 1879. The monument is in the center of Plaza Sotomayor and also has a crypt where are the remains of 22 sailors who fought in the battle. The monument is very well maintained, all it takes is careful to get him, do pass by the square streets and traffic is crazy.
