I like Santiago. I like some places more than others, obvious. But the overall result is very positive. In Santiago you can do a lot of things. One of my favorites neighborhoods in the city is "Lastarrias". It is a street placed in the center of Santiago. There you can find beautiful clothes store and delicious cafes and restorants. Lastarrias has an great architectonical style, by the way.

In some weekends of the year, some people sell old things like old coins, newspapers, paintings or photos... They're really precious. You have to go there!

Nearby Lastarrias, you can find the Forestal Park. Oh my God, you have to go there, too. It's fantastic. The trees are amazing, especially in autumn, when a beautiful green/yellow color takes the place. If you go there, do it walking or riding a bike, so you can stop to see all the details.

Ok, I know you're going to be tired after walking through all the park. But just when it finishes (or starts, it depends of where you're), you will find the "Emporio La Rosa". You can eat a delicious ice-cream there while you're sit taking a break.

Another place that I love is San Cristóbal. From the top of the hill you can see all Santiago. I mean, if you're lucky, because the city is commonly hidden behind an ugly mantle of pollution.

The last thing that you have to do is visit all the museums that you can. Especially, the Bellas Artes Museum. But you have to see an exposition of a chilean artist. By knowing the arts of a country you can get deeply into the culture of that place.

One last thing that you CANNOT forget: be careful with your things. You never know where a thief can be. And, sadly, we have a lot of them here in Santiago. But anyway, just relax and be happy and have a great time because Santiago is a nice city =).
