Casa de Isla Negra-home of Pablo Neruda

View from the bedroom
After visiting Vina Tarapaca, we then drove to Isla Negra on the coast to tour the home of Pablo Neruda, the Noel Price winning poet. He was also a diplomat and politician. But I guess above all else, he was a collector. He owned three homes--this one was very quirky. He bought the one room house overlooking the sea and added to over the years. It seems to be on little house leading to another little house, etc. with a different collection in each. What a collection--everything imaginable. The most impressive to me was the collection of masts-wow! The view was spectacular!

Unfortunately no photos were allowed inside.
