La Sebastiana

Although showing its age, Pablo Neruda's five-story former residence is packed with tourists—and the Nobel Prize–winning poet's eclectic keepsakes (like a stuffed Venezuelan caro caro bird and Coptic tapestry from Ethiopia). The house, typical of Valparaíso style, has narrow halls and small rooms, so go at 10 a.m. for a crowd-free peek into the life of the effervescent icon.
