About This Activity
Barrio Lastarria is Santiago's most charming pedestrian neighborhood, lined with indie bookshops, wine bars, and galleries. Adjacent Cerro Santa Lucía is a landscaped hilltop park with fountains, turrets, and city views — the very spot where Santiago was founded in 1541. Visit the Museo de Artes Visuales for cutting-edge Chilean contemporary art.
