Santiago

Beneath the imposing volume of the proud Andes, between valleys and hills lies Santiago, the capital of Chile and one of the most beautiful cities in south America. The air of development blows in the city of Santiago and becomes entangled with its rich historical past and its aristocratic European character, creating a city that is constantly renewed and pulsates under the cloak of its diverse cultural culture and the warm, welcoming heart of its inhabitants.

In Santiago, every corner of the city has its own history to offer and tell. The city with the most churches and architectural styles of Latin America reveals its interesting personality, through the motley combination of history, local tradition and culture, which rewards every traveler.

The walk starts from the historical center of Santiago, where monuments and attractions dominate, which know how to impress. From the central Plaza de Armas square, begin the urban routes of acquaintance with the city, with the presidential palace, La Moneda, standing imposing and sharing with the cathedral (Catedral Metropolitana de Santiago)

the fame and glory of the most recognizable monuments of Santiago.

The building of the central post office, (Correos de Chile) as well as the Town Hall, (Municipalidad), highlight the refined beauty of the neoclassical style, while from the highest point of Santiago, Cerro San Cristóbal, opens the abundant panorama of the city and the Andes, with the imposing statue of the Virgin Mary politely overseeing and protecting the city.

In the blooming gardens of Santa Lucía and the Parque Metropolitano, nature sets up its own dance, offering unique moments of relaxation and entertainment, while in the districts of Bellavista, Lastarria and Providencia, small narrow streets, picturesque corners and cafes compose the most atmospheric and charming, bohemian, setting of the city.  La Chascona, the house where the city lived Pablo Neruda, becomes the symbol of indomitable Chilean writing, which praised values and ideals and instilled the spirit of Chile around the world, placing Santiago at the top of the most attractive and multidimensional cities of the globe.
