Chile - Torres del Paine National Park (CL-1771)

Here's my first card from Chile! :) And my first card from South American country other than Brazil :) It shows the beautiful nature of Torres del Paine National Park. There's a lot of information in Spanish on the back side of this card, which I obviously don't understand. And only 2 sentences in English: "Magallanes: The greatest variety of wildlife in Chile. 25 species of mammals and 105 species of birds live in the National Park." Magallanes is a region in South of Chile, where the National Park is situated.

CL-1771

Bernardo O'Higgins National Park is its neighbour to the west, while Los Glaciares National Park is located to the north in Argentine territory.
