Santiago |
The capital of Chile emerges as one of the most recommended cities for tourism and for conventions and business trips in South America.
It has modern facilities, state of the art technologies, high quality accommodation, hotels and convention centers with a capacity to lodge up to 7 thousand delegates, and has companies with high experience in the events industry. An advanced development in telecommunications permits tourists and delegates to continue being connected with their work and homes.
Its tradition and history are tangible in its civic quarter (center), witness of the republican life of the country.The history, art and civic tradition are spread throughout its museums, art galleries, and artisan’s centers.
The university campuses confirm its leadership as a main seat of higher education in the country.
In this capital, as well as in Valparaiso and Isla Negra (both at less than 100 km far from the capital) tourists can have a touching approach to the life and work of Pablo Neruda, Literature Nobel Awarded, when visiting his museum houses.
Santiago is the starting point for domestic and international flights, besides being the departure center to travel through the highways towards the North and South of the country and to different places of the Central Valley, that go from the Coast Mountain Range, passing through soils that house fertile farms with agriculture crops and vineyards that are the base of internationally renowned Chilean wine production.
Santiago is also the capital of the Metropolitan Region, which extends in an area of 6 provinces, from the heart of the city to the mountains and valleys bathed by rivers that give life to enjoyment and recreation for its visitors.A must-to-see experience in the outskirts of the city of Santiago is the famous wine tour that allows tourist to visit famous vineyards located in the outskirts of the city and to visit the Cajón del Maipo or Pomaire.
The first one, a place of mountains and relaxation to spend a quiet weekend or even a day, and on the other hand, Pomaire, a famous place for its pottery, ceramics and Chilean handicrafts besides the typical gastronomy such as “empanadas” or “pastel de choclo” (corn pie).
Another attractive alternative is to take a tour to Valparaiso and Viña del Mar, visiting on the way a vineyard in the Casablanca Valley.
