Mirador de Gamboa
訪問に最適な時期
Best in the late afternoon, a couple of hours before sunset, when the light slides across the stilt house facades and reflections dance on the water. Clear weather after rain reveals the sharpest horizon line, beyond which volcanoes loom.
予算のヒント
Visiting is free, as is the entire walk from the city center to the viewpoint. You will save money if you hike on foot instead of taking a taxi and grab some snacks at the market along the way.
おすすめ対象
Photography enthusiasts, Sunset chasers, Solo travelers, Families with teenagers
訪問時間の計画
45-60 min
概要
クイックファクト: 展望台のある丘は、1567年にこの町を創設したスペインのコンキスタドールの名前に由来しています。晴れた日には足元に杭の上に建つ色とりどりの家々が広がり、地平線のフィヨルドの向こうには大陸の火山が連なっています。
見どころ: ここから旧市街全体が、水面に浮かぶ色とりどりの村のように見えます。杭の上に立つ家々が足元に直接並び、二つの黄色い教会の鐘楼が屋根の上に突き出ています。夕日がパラフィートのファサードを青、黄、赤に染め、その反射がフィヨルドの表面に二重に映ります。地平線には大陸の火山が浮かび上がります。
インサイダーヒント
- Wear a waterproof jacket and sturdy footwear, because the wind blowing from the fjord is sudden and the steps are slippery after rain.
- The best photos of the stilt houses are taken from the very top tier of the viewpoint with a telephoto lens.
- Avoid midday when the harsh light washes out the colors, and plan your visit for the last two hours of the day.
- At dusk the viewpoint is almost empty, so you will be able to quietly watch as the windows of the houses on stilts light up.
