Visit Santiago!


The best thing of Santiago city is that you can make too many activities and visit so beautiful places. I think that outdoor activities are the best. Also, have places to have fun and eat very well!!! Maybe this following list can be a good possibility to know great places:

1. - San Cristobal and Santa Lucia Hill
These hills are a beautiful possibility to make an outdoor activity. You can go up riding a bike, walking, climbing, and also you can get the top in a cable railway and see a big part of Santiago. Have a great see! Also, in San Cristobal hill you have the Metropolitan Zoo, Tupahue pool, the Immaculate Concepcion sanctuary and a beautiful Japanese garden. I suggest arriving in the morning and take pictures.

2. - Quinta Normal Park
This is most a familiar activity but can be a great possibility to learn much about Chile. This place has various museums inside and around its as well as green areas and a artificial lake. Chilean rail museum, the MAC, national nature history museum, culture center Matucana 100, Santiago’s library, Memory and human right museum, and others.

3. - Central Market (Mercado Central)
If you like or you want to know the best Chilean food, you have to go to Central Market. They have all the typical dishes and the plates are so big. They are so delicious!. You can taste seafood, corn’s pie, cazuela, empanadas, and to much more.

4. - Brazil
In this neighborhood you can see the old Santiago’s infrastructure. You can feel that you travel in a past machine. Also you have many restaurants and pubs where you can eat, dance, drink and have fun.

5. - Forestal Park
This is the most traditional place in Santiago. This is in the middle of the city next to the historic center (near of Arm’s square- Plaza de Armas). This round the Mapocho River and this place is known that you can make many activities. Al so you can found the Bellas Artes museum and Italy square (Plaza Italia).
