Welcome to stage 24, and the continuing journey south through Chile. Starting at Antofagasta on the Tropic of Capricorn, you’ll journey east to explore more of the Atacama Desert, an area not just important for the country’s mining industry, but also for the world’s astronomers, with many of the best observatories in the world set up here. Continuing south along Chile’s long Pacific coast, you’ll leave the desert for more fertile land as you reach the capital and largest city, Santiago.<\/p>\n
