Best Things To Do in Santiago

The Things To Do in Santiago Chile are extremely interesting. Compared to other capital cities there aren’t as many tourist attractions but there are still a handful of things to see.

1. Bellavista

Beckoning to an artsy crowd, the Bellavista neighborhood features graffiti-lined streets with cafes, art galleries and boutique shops.

2. Metropolitan Cathedral

Flanking the western edge of the Plaza de Armas, this neoclassical cathedral has a history that stretches back to 1541 when Spanish conquistador and city founder Pedro de Valdivia requested a place of worship be constructed at the edge of Santiago’s colonial square.
