At the foot of the Andes mountains, Santiago has a lively centre with various places of historical significance.
One place in Santiago which will bring back memories of one of the most violent and notorious coups of the 1970s is the Moneda Palace. It was here that Allende and his aides stayed in 1973, and it was this palace which the unfaithful troops bombed into ruins. It was also this palace where the same President Allende committed suicide rather than surrendering. Strikingly enough, a monument to the late president has been erected, looking onto the restored Moneda Palace.
