We had one day in Santiago and started it with a free* tour. On the way there we saw some art.
The story of this statue involved a jilted lover. Of the man, not the horse. We weren’t told what happened to the horse, though it looks like it may have been a more interesting story.
We passed lots of buildings in Chile this on has access to an underground museum area which we did not visit.
Out front was a giant flag.
There are some very nice parks in Santiago. This was right in the middle of our walk and was going to be a fortress, but instead became a really nice garden area.
Just before we crossed the river you could see off in the distance a nice spot where you can view the city. Mainly after it has had some rain to clear the skies.
In the river waterfront gardens were several statues. This was a fountain donated by Germany to celebrate the Chilean independence.
The food in Chile is really expensive. Remember that the . is a , so that is $2,950.
It was pretty warm and so lots of palm trees, although with really unusual bark patterns.
