Chile won this special category in 2019 and 2020. Now in 2021, Chile has once again been recognized as South America’s Most Romantic Destination, thanks to the many natural attractions San Pedro de Atacama has to offer. Its exceptionable sunsets and landscapes make Chile, once again, the best place for stargazing in South America.
