It has the most German influence with very little amenities for tourists. The town is small and most of the old German houses are uniquely built with wood.The drive to Puerto Octay is the most picturesque of the area. The winding road takes you through farms, sheep, cows and a beautiful aerial view of the lakes and the surrounding towns. All types of cheese and yogurt are found in a corner store in Puerto Octay’s town center. The cheeses are cheaper than those sold in Puerto Varas.If you are in Puerto Octay, remember to visit Octay Lacteos the biggest cheese shop in the town, just across from the town square. Puerto Octay is still non-touristy and offers visitors a look into the locals’ lifestyle in Lake District Chile.</description>

It was built in 1915 based on architecture found in the Black Forest of Germany.The dining scene is impressive in Puerto Varas. Other than kuchen, the German cake that is found everywhere in town, you must dine at a simple Italian eatery called Tratoria de Carusso located in Calle San Bernardo 318, Puerto Varas. Mr. Carusso cooks his Italian pasta in his old kitchen without modern cookware of equipment.The homemade ravioli and gnocchi are absolutely delicious. Please note, he does not take credit card. Another restaurant that locals go to, is Café Mamusia, located at Calle San Jose 316. Try their pichanga, a local dish filled with French fries, onions, beef, eggs and peppers.Puerto Varas is the gateway to the rest of beautiful Lake District Chile. You can also reach Puerto Varas and The Lake District by crossing the three lakes and taking three buses from Bariloche Argentina with Cruce Andino.</description>
