Tocopilla is the capital of the province of the same name and belongs to the Antofagasta Region. Tocopilla is located in the middle of Iquique and Antofagasta, along the edge of the maritime coast of Chile. Its geographical position and proximity to the Chilean sea have allowed Tocopilla to develop an economy based on fishing, as well as being recognized for the important mining activity that has remained in the city since the 19th century. Tocopilla currently offers a wide market in the chemical, electrical and metallurgical industries, economic activities that help to balance the low agricultural production in the area.
Among the most interesting cultural manifestations, we can mention the celebration that takes place in the New Year, originally it was the making of a doll in representation of the current year, which was set on fire at midnight as a symbol of purification, however, the tradition has evolved over time, recently the making of the doll has become an artistic work of great dimensions and significance.
