Doñihue, Chilean commune in Cachapoal Province, O'Higgins Region
The city stretches across 78 square kilometers of fertile valley land, surrounded by hills and agricultural fields at 337 meters above sea level.
The establishment of Doñihue as a commune occurred in 1872 when local residents petitioned for the creation of an administrative villa in the region.
Local artisans preserve traditional craftsmanship through the creation of chamantos, intricately woven wool ponchos that require months of detailed handwork.
Doñihue maintains direct road connections to Rancagua through route H-30, with a distance of 20 kilometers between the two urban centers.
The name Doñihue derives from Mapudungun language, referring to a location where wild peas naturally grow in abundance.
