My second novel, The Twisting Vine ends in Valparaiso and I mention the Ascensor Artillería in Valparaiso.
It was built in 1893 and is still in constant use.
I saw it when I was in Chile 3 years earlier.
This time I had to ride on it.
It travels up from the busy streets of the port to the Old Custom House which is now the Naval Academy and a wonderful Maritime Museum.
From the top of the cliff you can see across the whole bay.
