a day in santiago...


Hi! Today we have to be like a tourist guide and talk about interesting places to visit and things to do in Santiago. I don't know much about tourist attractions, but if a friend visit santiago I will show him my favorites places where we can have a really good time.
First the downtown offers many options to visit, for example classics options like La Moneda, our government house, Plaza de Armas, the most important square in Santiago, and full of history with traditional buildings.

A place that I really recommend to visit is San Cristobal hill. There are a lot of green areas to have a really good time and enjoy activities like do a picnic. There I especially like japanese garden, it has some trees and plants and a little lagoon with rocks in it. It is very pretty.
Something that I really love of this hill are the cablecars, you can see the entire city while you travel on them. Sometimes it migth be scary at the beggining, but when you see the awesome view, you don't care.
There is a zoo, the Metropolitan Zoo, and If you like animals you can visit it too.

Parque Forestal (forestal park) is another interesting place to visit. It has green areas to enjoy, and some playgrounds where you can have some fun.
I like very very much ice cream, and the perfect place to buy the most tasty ice cream is Emporio de la Rosa, there are a lot of variety of specials flavors, and you can enjoy it sitting in parque forestal, or lying in the grass.

And the last place that I recommend to visit is Municipal theater. I think that this is a really beautiful building full of awesome little details.
In there you can see shows wih a lot of quality, for example opera and ballet, my favorite one.
