WHAT TO DO / WHERE TO GO IN SANTIAGO

Well, generally I go to Santiago to go to the University, because I don't live there, I live in Cajon del Maipo, but it dosen't say that I know the city, so here we go... I think when a foreigner turist is in Santiago, the first place that he or she should visit is Cajon del Maipo, obiously, because it's a beautiful place, with a lots of things to do, like treks, rafting, camping, cavalcades and all this things with in contact whit the nature of our central valley also the tourist have a hotels, cabins o camping where to lodge, also have a very good restaurants. I think it's a good option because it is a different place to went in a big city as Santiago. In addition the tourist can arrive there in one hour or something like that.
Also the other wonderful place is the Viña Concha y Toro, in Pirque. This famous vineyard offers to the tourist a visit guided by his facilities and there they explain the whole process that it is necessary to do the wine and ultimately, obviously, it is looked. I think is a good option because the foreigners know our things and the production of it, is very interesting.
A very good place is the Bellavista Neighbourhood, where the foreigners have a lots of restaurants, pubs or places to have fun, I think that is a good place for foreigners because in there have the menus, for example, in english and other special things for them. Near of there are the Metropolitan Park where they can found the Zoo, the parks for to do some sports and the hill San Cristobal (well all this things are in there) and the "teleférico" y el "fonicular", in that one can raise the hill and have a very nice view of Santiago, well, if the smog allows it. And the last place than I think the tourist have to visit is the "Mercado Central", because there they can found the typical Chilean food, and a delicious food, like caldillo de mariscos, empanadas, cazuelas, Etc. If they visit this place they will be capable of seeing something more traditional of our country. I think that the latter place is the most Chilean of the five.
