Rancagua Things to See and Do
Rancagua does not have much to offer in an area otherwise rich with attractions. It does have fairly modern malls and department stores in case you need to shop, while the Plaza de los Heroés and Iglesia Catedral are worth a quick visit. However, the town better serves as a base for other activities such as Lago Rapel, El Teniente, the Chapa Verde Ski Resort, Reserva Nacional Rio los Cipreses and the hot springs at Termas de Cauquenes.
