From Valparaiso, we took an overnight bus to Puerto Varas to explore Chile's lake district and the doorway to Patagonia. Immediately, what struck us the most, was the German influence. Located on the shore of Lake Llanquihue, this small town might as well be located in Germany. The architecture, culture, feel, and vibe of it is very German, and quite pleasant. Yes, you'll taste Kuchen's, among many other desserts, but also you'll get the empanadas and local cuisine of Chile. In addition, Volcano Osorno and Petrohue, are a short distance away. We could definitely feel Patagonia approaching.
