This Chilean town, and commune, is in El Loa Province, in Antofagasta Region. Located some 60 miles southeast of Calama and the Chuquicamata copper mine in the east of Antofagasta, it features R. P. Gustavo Le Paige Archaeological Museum. Tourists in South America throng here to learn about pre-Columbian culture from a large collection of relics and artifacts from that region.
This unique Atacama Desert is the driest non-polar desert in the world. It probably rains once in four years here. The soil in the desert is like that found on Mars. It is one of the best places to visit in South America.
13. Los Glaciares National Park
Los Glaciares National Park is an example of what I said at the onset about the continent in the extreme. However, it’s positive this time. It is Argentina's largest national park and home to the largest ice cap outside Antarctica and Greenland. Nothing is small about Los Glaciares National Park. For instance, the ice cap feeds 47 large glaciers. It’s also home to Lake Argentino which is the Argentine’s largest lake while it has a lot of ecology and biodiversity.

The next of the 15 best places to visit in South America is also a park, this time a Colombian park. If you want to see how the environmental protection is combined with stunning views, go to this Colombia’s second most visited national park on the Caribbean coast.
Tayrona National Park, a protected marine reserve, houses great biodiversity in the flora and fauna. You will find up to over 300 species of birds, different mammals, and 70 kinds of bats. However, the best things marketing the park are those spectacular beaches in deep bays and mountains shaded by coconut palms.
11. Cusco, Peru
Let’s go back to Peru to see the next one of the best places to be in South America. Cusco, the historical capital of the country with its colorful historic past is one such place. It’s located at 11,000 feet elevation in the Andes Mountains. It was the capital of the mighty Inca Empire conquered by the Spanish. The relics of that past have put it on the list of tourist attractions as a place to visit in Peru and South America. The Spanish colonial heritages can still be found in the Old Town.
