The best of my city.

In general, Chile is a country quite visited and with many tourist attractions for possessing a variety of landscapes, who feel much interest in visiting our capital, in fact, it isn’t unusual to see tourists walking in many parts of Santiago, therefore is important like native people propose important places we know well (or maybe not , because even having lived here all our lives there are many typical and very nice places we don’t know, which should shame us) for a foreigner knows where to go and doesn’t live the city without knowing it.
The first thing that a foreigner must do, is to get a map of the city, after that they must find a good place to stay, after that he must thing and planning an itinerary of visit inside the city.
Taking into account that the order could be any the top five plcaes like suggestions are are:
1.- San Cristobal Hill: Is the main visit place because there are beautiful views of the city and many other attractions to enjoy for hours, also, in the top stays an imponent statue of the virgin Mary, which can be saw from almost anywhere of the city.
2.- O'Higgins Park: Is a very big park where you can walk by hours in a very nice ambient. The “Pueblito” is a very popular place inside to the park. If you are hungry, you can find typical food of all types and flavors and if you like amusement parks, you can also enjoy one called “Fantasilandia”.
3.- Museum of Contemporary Art: Is a great museum located in the middle of the Forestal Park, where you can see exhibitions of all kinds and various cultural activities that frmae our society.
4.- Central Market: Is a very popular place with a great variety of seafood. Is a good place to rest a while and eat exotic and typical food.
5.- La Chascona: And don’t forget to visit one of three Pablo Neruda's houses, where there are very important things about of his life.
This was a short list of places that I think are the most important, but there are many others that are worth a visit and show part of our culture.
