WHAT TO DO/ WHERE TO GO IN SANTIAGO

Hi! Today I’m going to talk about the best of Santiago.

First, although Santiago is a polluted city, has very beautiful outdoor locations that can be covered, and interesting panoramas to be developed.

Santiago is a city that, despite popular belief, it has many green areas: the Quinta Normal, Metropolitan Park and O'Higgins Park to name a few.

At the Quinta Normal can picnic, you can go to the Museum of Natural History and spend an entertaining afternoon.

On the other hand, San Cristobal Hill offers several panoramas, including: the zoo, climb to the Virgin, the Japanese fleet and various places to eat. In addition, up the hill using the cable car offers a privileged view of the city. And in summer the swimming pools Tupahue and Antilen inviting to have a good time.

Near San Cristobal hill is a place that brings together many traditional crafts of our country, in addition to some cafes. Also, there is another place that brings together many of our country crafts: Craft Fair St. Lucia.

Furthermore, there is a lot of museums, among which I think a tourist should visit. These include the Centro Cultural Palacio de la Moneda, which is in the basement of the palace of La Moneda. It has a modern facility offering various exhibitions and native country.

Another museum that I recommend is the Pre-Columbian Art Museum, which is centrally ocated and shows a varied exhibition of aboriginal peoples across Latin America.

Finally, I recommend the museum of the Church of San Francisco, because offering an exhibition of art and elements used during the era of conquest and colonization of Chile, is in an area accessible and as in the past was a Franciscan monastery, is a quiet and full of nature that invites peace and seclusion.
