Natural scenery

Torres del Paine National Park is located in southern Chile and was once selected by National Geographic as one of the "50 must-see places in a lifetime". It is famous for its beautiful lakes, numerous glaciers and soaring granite peaks. The park is also translated as Qingta National Park, and the word "Paine" comes from the Indian word for "blue", named because the entire national park is surrounded by blue glacial fjords and lake landscapes. The main attractions in the park include Torre Tower, Cape Torre, Nordenskjöld Glacier Lake, etc., as well as LagoGrey&GlacierGrey where you can see icebergs. Torres del Paine National Park is located in the transition zone between the Magellan sub-polar forest and the Patagonian steppe, so its biodiversity level is very high. The park is home to more than two hundred species of plants and consists of four vegetation zones: Patagonian Steppe, Pre-Andean scrubland, Magellanic subterranean forest, and Andean desert. In addition, the park is also known for the protection of wild animal species, which are home to many rare species such as scorpions, cougars, red foxes, and more.
