Limache

The town of Limache comprises two distinct urban areas, San Francisco de Limache in the north and Limache Viejo in the south, separated by Pelumpén stream.

The settlement developed during Spanish colonial times and transformed into a significant agricultural center in the Valparaíso Region through the nineteenth century.

The Feast of the Virgin of the 40 Hours occurs during the last days of February, with continuous masses leading to a grand Sunday procession.

Limache sits 43 kilometers east of Valparaíso and 103 kilometers northwest of Santiago, making it accessible from both major Chilean cities.

Limache maintains its position as a principal tomato production center in Chile, contributing substantially to the national agricultural output.
