The city of Santiago was founded by Pedro de Valdivia at the foot of a hill and hosts numerous cultural events.
Before the arrival of the Spaniards, the inhabitants of the area called it Huelén, which means "cursed" in the Mapuche language. In 1541, Pedro de Valdivia founded the city of Santiago at the foot of this hill, which he named Santa Lucía. In 1872, the intendant Benjamin Vicuña Mackenna converted the hill into a public promenade so that the people of Santiago could wander along its paths. An elevator leads to the top of the hill, which is crowned by a small square. This very pleasant place to stroll around is also the scene of many cultural events.

Petite colline au cœur de santiago au calme. Multiples petits chemins vers le sommet. Petits jardins et petites chapelles disséminées sur le parcours. Jolies vues sur Santiago et sur la cordillère des Andes par temps clairs. Accès gratuit

Bonne balade un peu sportif, et une belle vue sur Santiago si la météo le permet, au sein d'un parc en plein centre ville

Très belle vue sur Santiago d'en haut, mais il vaut mieux choisir une journée dégagée pour en profiter pleinement. On apprécie beaucoup mieux la majestuosité des Andes depuis cet endroit que si l'on est en bas.

La montée est raide mais la vue est une belle récompense, et le cadre verdoyant est bien agréable en plein cœur de la ville
