Full day Ciudad Minera Sewell

We invite you to visit the impressive Sewell mining town, located in the heart of the Andes Mountains, 150 kilometers south of Santiago. This city was built at the beginning of the 20th century with the objective of housing the workers of El Teniente, the largest underground copper mine in the world. In its colorful wooden houses, more than 15,000 people lived. One of its main features is the absence of streets, with stairs being the only access roads, which is why it is known as the City of Stairs.
