Shade
Santiago is in the grip of spring, soon to be summer. It's hot in the afternoon, close to 90. Under the trees it's fifteen degrees cooler and in Santiago you can walk miles under the trees. It's such a green, shaded city.

Santiago, Chile - Odds and Ends
Vibrancy
Santiago is lively. People are out on the street at all times of day, talking, selling, walking, eating. Their central market is gigantic and sells everything you can imagine. This stand was selling relishes and pickles by the barrel.

Santiago, Chile - La Chascona
Pablo Neruda's Santiago House
We stayed a block away from one of Pablo Neruda's houses, Chascona, in the foothills of the Bellavista neighborhood. Rather than a single house, it's three small houses connected by footpaths. I didn't expect much, what would a poet's house tell me about the poet?

What I Love About Santiago
Street Art
It's everywhere you look, on the sides of buildings, on billboards, in the subway stations. Colorful, creative, fun to look at.
