Chile Chico is often called the City of the Sun. This is due to its good weather with plenty of sunshine. The surrounding landscape is breathtaking. Among the scenic sights here include the Catedral de Mármol, or "marble cathedral". These are natural rock formations at General Carrera Lake, a huge lake in the area. The formations appear bluish when seen from the boats.

About this website

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
