Santiago and Wine Country Region
Santiago city itself is modern and sophisticated. Situated among the striking Andean mountains, this city offers mingling of parks and plazas with early-20th-century glass and steel architecture and museum after museums. You'll need two nights in a charming boutique hotel in the bohemian quarter to get a good sampling of its restaurants, markets, and museums.
Santiago
Gran Torre Santiago, the tallest building in South America, dominates the skyline of Chile’s capital. Santiago de Chile sits in a broad valley between the Andes and the Chilean Coastal Range, serving as the political and economic core of the nation. The city’s historic grid, laid out in 1541 around the Plaza de Armas, still guides visitors through its neoclassical core and surviving colonial churches.

Every February the city becomes the epicenter of Latin America’s most widely broadcast music celebration, the Viña del Mar International Song Festival. The event draws performers and audiences from across the continent to the coastal resort city in the Valparaíso Region of Chile. With a population of roughly 330 000, Viña del Mar sits on a narrow strip of land between the Pacific Ocean and the foothills of the Andes, offering a Mediterranean climate that keeps its gardens and beaches lively year‑round.
