Section 14
Lord Cochrane Square to Echaurren Square

This outstanding section is recommended on its own or combined with section 3 to make a circular route that starts and finishes at Plaza Sotomayor. Section 14 features many countless attractions, such as the Turri Clock, El Mercurio, the Bank of London, the Stock Exchange, and many, many others.

Degree of Difficulty:Easy

How to Get Here: By car, park under the Lord Cochrane Square. Enter the city on Pedro Montt, follow traffic as it sidesteps Victory Square and merges into Brasil. Near the British Arch, you will begin to see blue signs with arrows indicating how to access the underground parking garage. By bus or trolley, get off at the Lider Supermarket on the corner of Brasil and Bellavista.

Tourist Infrastructure: Lots. The traditional Germen eatery, Hamburgo, is highly recommended, but so is the centuryóold Café Riquet just around the corner on Anibal Pinto Square. Across from the Riquet, the Cinzano is attractive for late diners, not so much for the food, but for its charm. Also try one of two newer Italian options on Esmeralda Street, Terra Nostra and Michelango. If you’re looking for the perfect combination of history and good eating, and you weren’t tempted by the Hamburgo or the Riquet, try the Old English Bar, across from the Turri Clock. At Prat Pier, the Bote Salvavidas is also excellent. Finally, you can connect up to some of Valparaiso’s more important hillside restaurants without much detour. The Café Turri can be accessed by riding the Concepcion Elevator in front of the Turri Clock and the Colombina makes a nice end to your walk via the Peral elevator off Plaza Sotomayor.
