Torres del Paine National ParkSunset casts a rosy glow over granite peaks encircling a glacial lake in Torres del Paine National Park, Chile. Chile's prized jewel, the 598,000-acre (242,000-hectare) national park is a mosaic of landforms including soaring mountains, golden pampas, and grinding ice fields. At the southern tip of South America, the region of Patagonia includes parts of Argentina and Chile.
