I disliked it because it was somewhat patronizing if you ask me. The man is a little wierd but the actual house was pretty decent i guess.

La Chascona, was the "love nest" of poet Pablo Neruda and his wife Matilde Urrutia. It is situaded at the bottom of the San Cristobal Hill, near the Bellavista area, a secluded tree lined street, very quiet and romantic. If you have ever been in love, you will enjoy this tour.

A wonderful glimpse into the mind of a modern genius and the world he created to live in each day.
On the tour, you'll learn why water tastes better in colored glass and how Neruda was one of the first victims of Pinochet's dictatorship.

Great

I have been a Pablo Neruda fan for a long time and it was great to be able to see his house. La Chascona is the name of the women he later married and wrote the "Captain's Verses" about. I loved going there and would highly suggest it to like minded people

Great little house
By A Yahoo! Contributer, 11/09/06
It is an interesting little house where Pablo Neruda maintained one of his mistresses. It is a piece of the life of one of Latin America's greatest poets. The house itself is a blend of colonial architecture with the personal touches from Neruda that makes it stand out on its own.
