Overview
Santiago is the capital city of Chile and together with Greater Santiago forms the largest city of the country. This oldest city of Chile is home to nearly a third of Chile's entire population. Situated in the country's Central Valley, the location of the capital is quite spectacular with Snowcapped Mountains of Andes providing the backdrop.

Santiago is one of the most sophisticated cities of South America with two decades of uninterrupted economic growth. This thriving metropolis with extensive suburban development also headquarters many important companies and is regionally an important financial center. The city probably attracts the highest number of business travelers in the country much pertaining to its position as an important B2B shows hub.

Although not an exciting holiday destination compare to other major South American cities, Santiago sure is a city with distinctive personality, great sites, colorful markets, lively street life and awesome museums.

Together with impressive mixture of old and new architecture and full bloom gardens, the city is also studded with dozens of shopping malls, most spectacular infrastructure and gigantic skyscrapers. Therefore, despite being noisy and crowded like any other modern city, Santiago’s tombs and preserved neighborhoods also give it a sense of history at the same time.

The capital is mostly used as a base for outdoor adventures, excursions to wineries, national parks and ski-resorts, while its street life is vibrant with numerous chic sidewalk cafes, impressive hotels and excellent restaurants.
