Visiting Santiago

Santiago is a big city but not that much as other cities around the world, but, anyway, It's full of nice places to go and a lot of things to do. One of my favourite place to go is the oriental garden in the San Cristobal Hill, this place is so beautifull, plenty of flowers and green, it's ideal to take a little breake and just relax.
Other place that I love is the Forestal park and places near it, Lastarria Neighborhood.I think this is a really beautifull and nice neighborhood were it mix the nature with bohemian things, like literature and stuff. There is the Emporio La Rosa a kind of cafe where it sells ice cream of extranges or unusuall flavors like rose ice cream. A good idea is go to the Aviation Square in a summer nigth, there is a big fountain that turn on a lot of ligths and change colors in armony with the water, and be aeating a delicius ice cream of the Bravissimo gelatery that is like three blocks away.
Coming back with San Cristobal Hill, in this place we found a lot of different things to do like go to the swimming pool, go to the Zoo, go to the restaurant or just walk. You could go up in "funicular" or "teleferico" and enjoy of a great view of the hill.
Also, If you wanna go out at nigth o go to a party, you could visit streets like Suecia Avenue or Republica maybe. I hope you enjoy Santiago! :)

  1. It's funny, because I found your blog when I was posting the excuses for missing a lab class.
    I like Lastarria's neighborhood too. I love the construction style and the houses. I also included into my post, the San Cristobal's Hill view, beacause it helps to give a nice perspective of what Santiago is... a big smog roof xD
