Tarapacá Region

Tarapacá Region is located in the northern part of Chile and is known for its stunning landscapes and rich cultural heritage. This region is home to some of the most breathtaking photography locations in the country, including the Atacama Desert, the Lauca National Park, and the Pica Oasis. The Atacama Desert is the driest desert in the world and offers a unique opportunity to capture stunning images of the Milky Way and other celestial bodies. The Lauca National Park is a UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve and is home to a diverse range of flora and fauna, including the Andean flamingo. The Pica Oasis is a hidden gem in the middle of the desert and is known for its hot springs and lush vegetation, making it a perfect location for nature and landscape photography.

Vista de Iquique
Iquique from Cerro Dragón
by Diego Delso

View of the Dragon Dune in the foreground and the city of Iquique in the background, Tarapacá Region, northern Chile. The dune is about 20 000 years old and was originated by coastal winds when the sea level was 100 metres (110 yd) further inside. The dune looks menacing, especially from the bottom, but is stable. It became a Natural Sanctuary in 2005 but before that it was partially removed in the West wing to allow the growth of the city of Iquique. The dune is 6.4 kilometres (4.0 mi) long, between 150–550 metres (160–600 yd) wide and 320 metres (350 yd) high. Iquique has aprox. 185 000 inhabitants and is a prosperous and fast-growing city thanks to the free trade activities.
