Santiago sprawls beneath the Andes, a ultra-modern capital of glass towers, cutting-edge restaurants, and street art subcultures blending Old World vibrancy with New World energy. The Cordillera backdrop dominates every vista, snowy peaks framing neighborhoods that climb from river to foothills. Wine valley estates sprawl within an hour's drive, and the city pulses with bohemian creativity and political edge.
