At the foot of the Andes mountains, Santiago has a lively centre with various places of historical significance.
Santiago is also the real centre of the country, housing government and the hub of the transportation system. Personally, I like cities when their centre is relatively small. In the case of Santiago, this is certainly true. The central area can easily be covered on foot. In this area, with Plaza de Armas as the centre of the centre, almost everything can be found in terms of shops, restaurants, hotels, city sights, and subway stations. If you are lucky and the smog does not completely cover the skies over Santiago, snowy peaks of the Andes can also be seen from the city centre. As in many places in Chile, both high mountain peaks as well as the seaside are at close hand here - it takes one hour to get to either one of them.
