I think that Santiago is a great place. For me, the best thing of Santiago is present in all our country: the Andes Mountains (Cordillera de los Andes). It's so important beacause is a benchmark in Chile. We know that it indicates the cardinal point East. Further, the Andres Mountains are a sky center. There are a lot of snow in winter, people around the world come to play sports here.

Then, in Santiago there are many places to visit. For example, San Francisco Crurch in te center of the city. It's one of the oldest churches in Santiago, so it's a museum with more history. There are antique furniture, antique clothing, paintings, colonial architecture and many other things.

Other place for visit in Santiago is the San Cristobal hill. It's a hill in the center of Santiago too (20 minuts of San Francisco Crurch). This is a very funny place because there are here railways, so we can see all the city from here! It's great! Also, there are many trees, parks, trails, playgrounds, even a zoo. It's fantastic!

Maybe, is you want know popular places, it is advisable to go to the Paseo Ahumada, Forest Park, Central Market (there are many restaurants with typical Chilean food, food with seafood, among many others.

Another option is to visit places close to Santiago, as Chimbarongo (where you can find wicker things such as furniture, toys and home decor) or Pomaire, (there sell things made from clay, made by local craftsmen)
