What are some cool things that i should chack out in Santiago CHile?

im going ther in 3 days
any suggestions on whats hot

The Pre-Columbian Museum in the downtown area, plaza de armas if I recall correctly, is outstanding. The Plaza is also a great hjangout. Like any big city, watch your wallet. Low crime rate but don't be foolish with your valuables.

If you like wine go to the Enoteca (wine bar) at the Parque Metropolitano, also known as Cerro San Cristobal. Outstanding views. Use the funicular unless you enjoy torture.

If you like seafood, served extremely casually, go to the Central Market (Mercado Central). It is one of the finest examples of wrought iron buildings around, and the food is great. Unique architecture and street musicians accompany a plethora of dining options, seafood is abundant in this food court.

Cerro Santa Luc铆a is a triangular-shape hilltop park, one of the more delightful attractions in Santiago. This is where Pedro de Valdivia, the conqueror of Chile, founded Santiago in 1540 for the crown of Spain.

Dine, but dine late. Restaurants close after lunch and don't reopen until after 7:00-7:30 ish. You had better eat lunch or you will eat junk or go hungry. Eating at 11:00 PM is common. They won't kick you out unlike our rude U.S. restaurants.

Eat lots of empanadas.
Get a private city tour, you, travelling companion, driver and interperter in a private car.

If time permits take the intercity bus to Vina Del Mar. The bus system is fantastic. Stay at hotel Cap Ducal

Hope this helps.

Go to the Cafe "Cafe con Piernas" in downtown. Good drinks, friendly service, and plenty of eye candy.
