San Fernando, Provincial capital in O'Higgins Region, Chile
San Fernando extends across 2,441 square kilometers in central Chile, positioned at 340 meters elevation along the Tinguiririca River valley.
Founded in 1742 by Jose Antonio Manso de Velasco, San Fernando gained status as the provincial capital of Colchagua in 1840.
The city maintains strong connections to Chilean rodeo traditions, with regular events showcasing local riders and their horsemanship skills.
The Pan-American Highway and central railway network provide direct transportation links to Santiago and other major Chilean cities.
Local thermal springs, Las Termas del Flaco, offer mineral-rich waters surrounded by Andean landscapes east of the city.
