Arround the world there are importants cities like Ney York, Paris, Roma, in others, but, what happend with other cities like Santiago or Lima? Are them popular like this capitals?
I don´t really know.
I really think that Santiago isn´t a touristy city, but if a tourist come to Santiago, there are many places to go.
Santiago is separated in many parts: out of Santiago, Center of Santiago and Range of Santiago. In this parts the turist can watch differents landscapes and practice many activities.
For example, out of Santiago there are many countrysides and other littles cities like Talagante or Calera de Tango. In Center of Santiago there are many old buildings, tradicional places like La Piojera, in others. Finally, in range of Santiago there are ski centers like "El Colorado", places where people can see beautiful landscapes of our capital.
If a tourist doesn´t know anythig about Santiago, he or she must to try to meet many kind of people. I think that the people is an important referent from a city.
My top 5 places in Santiago:
5: Saint Lucy Hill: In center of Santiago there are a big hill: Saint Lucy. This hill is spectacular because inside there are a old building and in the top you can see all Santiago.
4: Saint Cristobal hill: At north of Santiago, near of Saint Lycy hill is Saint Cristobal hill. This part of Santiago is very beautifull and funny because inside of hill there is the zoo. To arrived to this place the tourist can walk for Bellavista street, other touristic place.
3: The Mint: this is the government building. The Mint have many history and was desinsigned by Alexandre Gustav Eiffel.
2: Quinta Normal: other traditional place of Santiago is Quinta Normal. Quinta Normal is a big park -near of Central Station- where people can go to walk and navigate in a like lake. Other important characteristic of Quinta Normal is that inside its borders there are many Museums.
1: Central Station: It is a tradicional building where arrived the train from south. Near of Central Station -where you can arrived in subway- there are many shops and tradicional streets like "Exposición" and "Bascuñán Guerrero". I love this place because there are chilean spirit in the air and is very cheap.

Hello Fran
ResponderEliminarI am agree with you in three places. Also I think the Mapocho Station and the Saint Lucy Hill are good places for visit.
See you in class.
