Introducing Ovalle

This unassuming market town is more famous for its surrounding attractions than its own modest charms, which include an artifact-heavy museum and an animated plaza where men huddle over chess games and stalls peddle colorful trinkets. Founded as a satellite of La Serena in early republican times, Ovalle is the capital of the prosperous agricultural province of LimarĂ­; so it's unsurprising that it also has the liveliest market, Ferio Modelo de Ovalle, in the region.
