Elqui Valley is one of the places that calls the most attention to this country, not necessarily for its landscape but for being related to esoteric and extraterrestrial phenomena. In addition,
thanks to the weather conditions, the best pisco (brandy-like liquor) is produced here and it is also the ideal place for astronomical research. It is the birthplace of the country's greatest
female poet and literature Nobel Prize winner: Gabriela Mistral.
