Santiago: A Wonderful City


Santiago... Well I must say that I love my city, there are many places that I like and they are very special to me. There you can find characteristic spaces of a modern city, but also places of privileged nature. In my opinión there are many beautiful and interesting places to visit, such us the Palacio de la Moneda (Mint Palace), the Plaza de Armas (main square), the cathedral, the Pre-Columbian Art Museum and Casa Colorada are between the most popular sites. The Bellavista Bohemian Neighborhood stands out for its distinguished restaurants, art galleries, pubs and residences. Other neighborhoods which show off their modern buildings and quiet atmosphere are Las Condes and Providencia. Visiting San Cristóbal hill implies catching a beautiful panoramic sight of the city and touring around the Zoo. I also like Santa Lucía hill, Parque forestal, the Brazil neighborhood, the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes and the Lastarria neighborhood.

Another things is a food, if you are a food lover in Santiago you will find a variety of exquisite restaurants. You can go to the movies, to the theater, ride through a park, or if you enjoy winter sports, Valle Nevado, La Parva, Farellones, El Colorado and Lagunillas.. Finally, I would like to say… visit Santiago!

  2. Santiago is beautiful! I like too, but there are something that I don't like; pollution =(, but has a lot of parks and places to go and relax too. In the future I would like to live in Ñuñoa, it's a nice place =)

  4. Hi!
    Santiago is a beautiful city!, but sometimes it becomes an ugly place by the smog, congestion of vehicles, etc.
    I like living in Santiago, I think there are many places to go. I also love the bars and restaurants in downtown Santiago as "Quitapenas", "La Piojera", etc.
    I see you
    bye.
