Puerto Montt

Puerto Montt is one of the fastest growing cities in Chile. It is the buh to go to Patagonia. Beside that, we have the boom of the salmon farming (the salmon is not naturally present on this place) and the forest industry. Puerto Montt was founded in 1853 on the ground of a Mapuhe community who called the place Melipulli which means four hills.

One of the most interesting district is Angelmo harbor, located at two kilometers of the bus station.
