点评:Castro is the main city on the big island of Chiloe, the fourth oldest city in Chile, founded in the mid 1500s by the Spanish. Castro is known for its wooden churches, waterfront, and its maritime heritage.
The wooden houses are located on a pier-like structure with thick poles. Today they are multi-colored. In earlier days, the colors were yellow, pea green, paprika, and orange. These homes allowed the fishermen to moor their boats next to their homes. In the past fisherman would ride in and out with the tide from the porch of the house. They are built with native woods such as cypress and luma, which is gathered from Chiloe’s Forest. Another feature is its two entrances, one facing the street and another facing the water. The stilt homes continue to provide a cozy home close to the shore and are safe. Today most of the homes are owned by locals but some have been converted to boutique hotels.

木屋坐落在一个有粗柱子的码头状结构上。今天,它们是多彩的。早期,颜色有黄色、豌豆绿、辣椒色和橙色。这些房屋允许渔民将船只停泊在房屋旁边。过去,渔民会从屋檐下乘着潮水进出。它们是用从奇洛埃森林采集的柏树和卢玛树等本土木材建造的。另一个特点是它的两个入口,一个面向街道,另一个面向水。高跷房屋继续提供靠近海岸的舒适之家并且很安全。如今,大部分房屋归当地人所有,但有些已改建为精品酒店。
