Santiago is a modern metropolis located at the foot of the snow-capped Andes Mountains. The fifth largest city in
South America, Santiago is the capital of Chile, as well as its historic, economic and cultural center.
The city is made up of 32 distinct neighborhoods. A mix of old and new architecture, its common to see a shiny skyscraper towering
over a 200-year-old colonial-style building. Wide, tree-lined streets, parks, cafes, monuments and museums give Santiago a somewhat
European feel, but the friendly Chilean people remind you that youre still in South America. Very few speak English, so its the
perfect place to practice your Spanish.
Located just an hour from world-class ski resorts, beautiful beaches and wineries, this unique Latin American city has something
for everyone.
