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.

Jolie vue sur Santiago, très agréable. En bas du cerro se trouve une petite feria artisanale très sympa !

Un coin de verdure au coeur de la ville mais qui surplombe la ville.
Magnifique et bien entretenu cet endroit est sans conteste, un lieu où aller.

Ce petit quartier bordée par la bruyante avenue O'Higgins est un havre de paix pour les touristes (nombreux restaurants) et les étudiants qui profitent des pelouses du parc aménagé sur un cône volcanique. Du haut, vue à 360° sur Santiago et la cordillère enneigée (quand il n'y a pas de smog).

Petit coin de verdure au milieu de la ville, vraiment tres joli, raffraichissant quand il fait tres chaud, pour aller se balader ou pique-niquer. Super point de vue sur Santiago.
