First of all, hello. I have to do a warning before i start writing: i’m not from Santiago, so it’s possible that i said really non tourist places.
I think that a good place for a foreigner to visit here in Santiago first is all the downtown of it, because it has lots of national culture, the colony architecture, the typical Chilean people. In the downtown are places like the Santa Lucia’s hill (i like it because it has lots of trees and grass); San Cristobal’s hill with the Maria Virgin on its top, and the “teleférico” (i don’t know how to say it in English), because it’s really fun; San Diego Street with all his books, because it is one of the cheapest place to buy books; la Vega, because it’s a popular place that has lots of histories; the Chile university (obviously the Juan Gomez Milla Campus to drink beers, smoke all the things that you can imagine and fight against the police) because it’s better that the Catholic University of Chile and etcetera.
I think that would be good that a tourist go to La Piojera, to drink lots of “terremotos” (in English means earthquake) and get really drunk. Another thing to do in Santiago its travelling on the transantiago transport system, it is really fun to go on the microbus like a sardine on a tin. Other place to visit is the Pablo Neruda’s (he is a really famous poet of Chile, he got the Nobel prize) house in Santiago.
I don’t know anything else about Santiago, so i guess i won’t write more. See you next week. Bye
