POST 4 - What to do? where to go in Santiago?


Are you a tourist or a traveller in Santiago?... Do you like to know what to do and where to go in Santiago?... I help you…

But before, the first that I must tell you something, for me Santiago is a city very distint to other cities of Chile. In this place, the world walk too fast!, therefore, "you live quickly!": "you walk quickly", "you feel quickly","you eat quickly", "you study quickly". Maybe, I am exaggerating... I admit that I am a few stressed, and that in this moment, only I would like to have a few of peace!!...

Well, What to do and where to go in Santiago?
First, you should to go to "La Moneda”. It is the government palace that you will can easily recognize it, because it is a big building ubicated in the centre of Santiago city. In this place, you can walk trough Patio de los Naranjos or to visit "Centro Cultural La Moneda", where you will can see different exhibition of recognized artist as Violeta Parra! and watch national and international documentarys or films.

Then, If you have hungry, you should visit the popular Central Market you have that to eat the chilean food -as cazuelas, pastel de choclo and empanadas- and in "La Piojera" to drink our delicious beer and wine!!.

If you like to climb, I recomend to go to “Santa Lucía” Hill and “San Cristobal” Hill: “Santa Lucía” Hill because it is a historic place and it has a beatiful view of Santiago; and “San Cristobal” Hill, because it is the most big hill in Santiago and it has an abundant vegetation. Moreover, if you want to do sport you can to rise the hill on foot or you can use the famous teleféricos, it is a great experience!!.

If you enjoy with the art... you can visit the National Museum “Bellas Artes” ubicated in the known “Parque Forestal”, where you will can see expositions of important artists.
