• National Library of Chile - The impressive structure you see, which could easily be mistaken for the Museum of Fine Arts, is actually the National Library of Chile.

• Terraza Neptuno - You are now on Neptune’s Terrace, facing the stunning fountain of the same name. This grand fountain, dedicated to the Roman God of the seas, was constructed between 1897 and 1903 to serve as the main attraction at the entrance to Santa Lucia Hill.

• Santa Lucía Hill - Ascending to the summit of Cerro de Santa Lucia might be a bit of a climb with its numerous stairs, but the view is definitely worth the effort! This is Pedro de Valdivia Square.

• Castillo Hidalgo - During the Reconquest, Spain’s final attempt to retain Chile in its colonial empire, the Santa Lucia hill was transformed into a royalist stronghold. You can see cannons, fortified gates, and now the Castillo Hidalgo.

There are Handicraft Points of Sale, Bookshops, the Great Cultural Centre of Gabriel Mistral, numerous museums, a cinema, hotels, and a variety of bars and restaurants.

• Santiago - It’s evident that the streets of Bellavista are adorned with vibrant, creative, and committed street art. While Valparaiso often takes the spotlight for street art, Santiago holds its own.

• National Museum of Fine Arts - If there’s one building in Santiago that gives the impression of a brief detour through Paris, it’s the Museum of Fine Arts! This magnificent neoclassical palace, inspired by the Petit Palais Parisien, was designed by the French-Chilean architect Emilio Jéquier in 1910, to commemorate the Republic’s centenary!

• Central Market (Mercado Central) - From here, you are close to Santiago’s Main Point of Sale. If you’re feeling peckish, this is the perfect place to explore local gastronomy and connect with the locals. Entering the Mercado Central, built in the 19th century, is an awakening of colors, aromas, and the lively atmosphere of a place that has been significant to the residents since 1872.

• Santo Domingo Church - On your right, you pass the Church of Santo Domingo. As its name suggests, it was founded by the Dominicans, the third religious order to settle in Chile after the Order of Mercy and the Franciscans.

• Central Post Office (Museo Postal) - The entire north side of the plaza belonged to Pedro de Valdivia, whose equestrian statue you see behind you. After his death, the site was divided into three, and several important institutions were established.

• Centro Cultural Palacio de la Moneda y Plaza de la Ciudadania - You are now on the opposite side of the grand Palacio de la Moneda, the seat of the Presidency of the Republic. It is called the Palace of Coinage because it was originally used in 1814 to mint the country’s currency.

• Plaza de Armas - You are now at the Plaza de Armas. All major South American cities have their “Plaza de Armas,” located in the heart of the historic center. These squares were created by the conquistadors and bring together the various powers of the time.

• Metropolitan Cathedral (Catedral Metropolitana) - You cannot miss it, majestically standing at the corner of the Plaza de Armas, is the Metropolitan Cathedral. It is the seat of the Archdiocese of Santiago, and its construction was no small feat!

• National Congress of Chile Palace in Santiago - You are here between two significant institutions in Santiago: the former National Congress and the Courthouse. On your right, protected by gates and hidden behind beautiful gardens, is the Ex National Congress.

• Constitution Park - You are in Constitution Square, at the heart of Santiago’s civic district. It is surrounded by government buildings.

• Club de la Unión de Santiago - The beautiful and opulent building you see is the Union Club. Founded in 1864, it provided the aristocracy with a place worthy of their status to meet. Since colonial times, Chilean society has been accustomed to gathering for debate and discussion.

• University of Chile - The classic yellow building you see is the University of Chile, affectionately known as the “U.” Founded by the Chilean state on September 17, 1842, it is the first university in the new Republic of Chile and the most prestigious in the country.

• PARIS LONDRES - Take a small detour to Europe with the discovery of Paris and London streets. If you find it odd that street names are in French, rest assured they are the same in Spanish, pronounced Paris/London. Mystery solved.
