Places to visit in Santiago

Santiago is a really nice city if you know where to go.
For tourists I think that our Cathedrals and our museums are great, they can know about our history. Also they can visit Mercado Central to taste our typical food, and to know our culinary customs. They can also visit La Piojera, because is an historical place, many presidents and politics used to go there.
Tourist should visit Bellavista’s at night, is more dangerous than before, but taking precautions you can have a nice evening with friends.
If they are in Santiago, they have beaches and mountains near, so a quickly visit to the see the sea, or to see some snow is not a bad idea.
I usually visit (1) Forestall Park with my camera, I just love to take pictures to the autumn, I love its colours! I think than is a romantic place, and sometimes are street artist, very lovely. And also you are next to (2) Bellas Artes museum so you can visit it too, and there are many café’s too. In summer is really nice to lie down on the grass on a park, like (3) Parque Araucano or (4) Parque O’Higgins, these are places to visit with the family, because are big green areas, very relaxing and great for play.
(5) San Cristobal’s hill is nice too, you have a swimming pool, but you have to take the railway to get there, also to go to metropolitan museum, but it’s a really beautiful view. Also you can visit Santa Lucia’s hill if you want to enjoy the view and walk a lot, but is important to go after the rain or in summer, because the smog cover the city and you can’t see anything.
