A glance through the downtown blocks reveals a mighty circle of mountains - the snowcapped Andean peaks to the east, and a smaller coastal range to the west - that frames the Chilean capital. <br />A clear day, however, is rare in this smog-blighted metropolis. In art class, Santiago school-kids draw their horizons a murky gray and, although the air has cleared somewhat in recent years, pollution and noise are likely to cloud your first impressions, especially in winter. <br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOpAYpwHfoZlxC7OGxuLGvTscCEgJQBCORnT8v3M66dQAfftPTU-pjDQcj8eW5tTioKdBS5kYUVSX0z2SZ7utcRsuzONneU2PF8QdC2SBvWfV1MsZ-MSrkne_c2CYmLI_1PAvpboPGubWM/s1600/Santiago+Chile+35.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="164" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOpAYpwHfoZlxC7OGxuLGvTscCEgJQBCORnT8v3M66dQAfftPTU-pjDQcj8eW5tTioKdBS5kYUVSX0z2SZ7utcRsuzONneU2PF8QdC2SBvWfV1MsZ-MSrkne_c2CYmLI_1PAvpboPGubWM/s320/Santiago+Chile+35.jpg" width="320" /></a>Don't be put off. Santiago might be dirty and loud, and it might not match the grandeur of Buenos Aires - but it <i>is</i> cultured, quirky and ambitious. The city rewards the patient traveler. Beyond the conservative conformity of Santiago Centro, and the soulless towers of the Las Condes financial district, there are thriving culinary and artistic enclaves that are a joy to uncover. Gourmets feast on world-class cuisine in Bellavista and Providencia, bohemians gather in the charming old district of Barrio Brasil, while the city is dotted with fine museums and a flourishing arts scene. With a booming café culture and leafy, exotic suburban parks, Santiago has an infectious energy and a growing confidence. <br />And those mountains don't just sit there as decoration - there's a huge range of activities within easy reach of the urban sprawl. Trekking, climbing, horseback riding, skiing, kayaking and wine tours are just a few of the exhilarating possibilities at Santiago's doorstep.<a class="pin toggleMap closed" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/chile/santiago#" id="pinToggleMap" style="display: block;"><span class="showMapText">Show in Lonely Planet</span></a><br /><b>Ready to go?</b><br />These tours & activities make it easy:<br /><ul class="inBody"><li>Visit Santiago on your <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/south-america/tours/explorer/chile-argentina-38?lpaffil=fbta1">trip through Chile, Argentina & Brazil</a></li><li>Witness the best of <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/south-america/tours/trekking/chile-vineyards-peaks?lpaffil=fbta1">Southern Chile by foot and boat</a></li><li>Go on a day trip to two of the <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/chile/santiago/activities/day-trips/cousino-macul-concha?lpaffil=fbta1">oldest wineries in Chile</a></li></ul><div class="relatedLinks clearfix"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSwfcLG5olAQsxDqjQXLPpCjLECQCAtYYmVPGR7rO4Albbm2O68LLEUn8FxdNuCU-5TfLJK35daqtUIGfiM0nwOqsCbcja6NMoXz4hXST2dfVhyphenhyphenjr8Sl5yH2rTCP4AgoR5EW0pRQ5NdIfN/s1600/Santiago+Chile+38.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiSwfcLG5olAQsxDqjQXLPpCjLECQCAtYYmVPGR7rO4Albbm2O68LLEUn8FxdNuCU-5TfLJK35daqtUIGfiM0nwOqsCbcja6NMoXz4hXST2dfVhyphenhyphenjr8Sl5yH2rTCP4AgoR5EW0pRQ5NdIfN/s400/Santiago+Chile+38.jpg" width="400" /></a><br /><h3 class="themeHeading">More about Santiago </h3><ul><li> <a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/chile/santiago/transport/getting-there-away">Getting there & around <span class="bottom"></span> </a> </li><li> <a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/chile/santiago/practical-information/money-costs">Practical information <span class="bottom"></span> </a> </li><li> <a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/chile/santiago/history">History <span class="bottom"></span> </a> </li><li> <a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/chile/santiago/travel-tips-and-articles">Tips & articles <span class="bottom"></span> </a> </li><li><a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/chile/santiago/hotels?lpaffil=hotels-beta">Hotels</a></li><li><a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/chile/santiago/forum">Forum</a></li></ul></div><div class="relatedLinks clearfix"><h3 class="themeHeading">Make it happen</h3><ul><li><a class="linkChevron" href="http://shop.lonelyplanet.com/shopSearch?q=santiago%5E2+or+Chile">Shop for travel guides</a></li><li><a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/chile/santiago/hotels?lpaffil=hotels-beta">Search hotels</a></li><li><a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/bookings/flights.do">Cheap flights</a></li><li><a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/bookings/insurance.do">Travel insurance</a></li></ul><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAgmvItldwsNUFxCrok4Rer4Yx3nyOT2WXGl4i8M16J7f2_yb8XPmXbmtfoWQgr5P0sllV92P_pSMtba215RsjFvKwwFFG2S3rhZhyTB8O-57I8WerWMhHrtp81Fgycre-64YZTfcMpOgZ/s1600/Santiago+Chile+8.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="424" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAgmvItldwsNUFxCrok4Rer4Yx3nyOT2WXGl4i8M16J7f2_yb8XPmXbmtfoWQgr5P0sllV92P_pSMtba215RsjFvKwwFFG2S3rhZhyTB8O-57I8WerWMhHrtp81Fgycre-64YZTfcMpOgZ/s640/Santiago+Chile+8.jpg" width="640" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirgU0ytCH__DOB5Z2JgHA0uJV4umiN8PC8GG9bXHKyp6LG2c6bHnjBvZlRV_v41bTdYQpKhsyHdSraRiaEHZVIgEuhum01K_MRNsPM0ThX8Xd1K7fo8h03T4OYWhcJRsA8uce4CR-G5ZDu/s1600/Santiago+Chile+41.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="458" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirgU0ytCH__DOB5Z2JgHA0uJV4umiN8PC8GG9bXHKyp6LG2c6bHnjBvZlRV_v41bTdYQpKhsyHdSraRiaEHZVIgEuhum01K_MRNsPM0ThX8Xd1K7fo8h03T4OYWhcJRsA8uce4CR-G5ZDu/s640/Santiago+Chile+41.jpg" width="640" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikRteK-e7i_tZxB3FDjZge-kziX4D9bcJkkGddOn35X1BIKNqCCCg1VuWtwakHGKbIpXixUZxuwZCaDtKliW1gFoOHTxYUKrD_QlYXVUxJO30ThapZwcwVYjUF3wipZBuxjeK6LbJP4DTB/s1600/Santiago+Chile+14.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="428" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikRteK-e7i_tZxB3FDjZge-kziX4D9bcJkkGddOn35X1BIKNqCCCg1VuWtwakHGKbIpXixUZxuwZCaDtKliW1gFoOHTxYUKrD_QlYXVUxJO30ThapZwcwVYjUF3wipZBuxjeK6LbJP4DTB/s640/Santiago+Chile+14.jpg" width="640" /></a></div></div>

Ignored by many Chileans, who prefer the more mundane charms of Viña del Mar next door, people are now beginning to catch on - especially since the city was named a Unesco World Heritage site in 2003. From the flat city center <i>asce</i><i>nsores</i> (funicular elevators) creak at an improbable angle up to a very different city above. These tumbling chaotic <i>cerros </i>(hills), with their steep labyrinthine roads, crumbling mansions and kaleidoscopic rooftops, will have even amateur photographers snapping on every street corner.<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vaY4uiKyDN0/UC5VU_BzeNI/AAAAAAAAP4g/TaW0lu7JTC4/s1600/Valpara%C3%ADso+Chile++33.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="131" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-vaY4uiKyDN0/UC5VU_BzeNI/AAAAAAAAP4g/TaW0lu7JTC4/s200/Valpara%C3%ADso+Chile++33.jpg" width="200" /></a><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fdvIiWgDJd4/UC5VSoDmLcI/AAAAAAAAP4Q/75kzjMlg5AI/s1600/Valpara%C3%ADso+Chile++31.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="211" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fdvIiWgDJd4/UC5VSoDmLcI/AAAAAAAAP4Q/75kzjMlg5AI/s320/Valpara%C3%ADso+Chile++31.jpg" width="320" /></a>It's not just the stunning vistas that hit you as you look down to the busy working commercial and naval harbor below; it's the unique, faded grandeur of the town, and its spontaneous, bohemian charm. More than anywhere else in <a href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/destinationRedirector?atlasId=363257">Chile</a> there's a feeling of 'anything goes, ' a legacy of Valparaíso's artistic presence (Pablo Neruda had a home here) and its ever-shifting port population. <br /><div class="mpuWrapper " id="mpuInContent"><div class="mpuInner"><div class="adContainer" id="adContainer_mpuInContent"></div></div></div><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-q0oPrD7EZKE/UC5VTk_BrzI/AAAAAAAAP4Y/L2K2in6QQcU/s1600/Valpara%C3%ADso+Chile++32.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-q0oPrD7EZKE/UC5VTk_BrzI/AAAAAAAAP4Y/L2K2in6QQcU/s320/Valpara%C3%ADso+Chile++32.jpg" width="240" /></a><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9w00mEC8y80/UC5VjJjqlyI/AAAAAAAAP54/VN1aYZYiR0M/s1600/Valpara%C3%ADso+Chile+12.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="124" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-9w00mEC8y80/UC5VjJjqlyI/AAAAAAAAP54/VN1aYZYiR0M/s200/Valpara%C3%ADso+Chile+12.jpg" width="200" /></a>It's not for everyone, mind you. Some visitors shudder at the madly crisscrossing electricity wires above the streets, and find the city run-down and dirty. Others get put off by Valpo's poverty. Some of the country's poorest shantytowns stretch up the hills, and petty crime is a problem in certain areas. And a few don't really 'get' the city: you don't really 'do' much in Valpo apart from wander the streets and maybe take in one or two museums. <br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgH8sNPZ93YtjIiOO6T51TZAyEhrIZI01jkAzqPHCg9NQCBwTxt7tozoTpxD5NpZ87pcXI4WuNiS4JU6909vkhKR9l9Q1GsPahyphenhyphenD0soFEC-9-xkm8viC5Zo2kxvrZYFIK8neOHxluzp6qMZ/s1600/Valpara%C3%ADso+Chile++37.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="218" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgH8sNPZ93YtjIiOO6T51TZAyEhrIZI01jkAzqPHCg9NQCBwTxt7tozoTpxD5NpZ87pcXI4WuNiS4JU6909vkhKR9l9Q1GsPahyphenhyphenD0soFEC-9-xkm8viC5Zo2kxvrZYFIK8neOHxluzp6qMZ/s320/Valpara%C3%ADso+Chile++37.jpg" width="320" /></a>But most who come here remember Val- po - nicknamed <i>La Perla del Pacífico</i> (Pearl of the Pacific) - for the right reasons: for its bonhomie; for its hedonistic late nights; for its fabulously welcoming family <i>hospedajes</i> (budget accommodations); and for its unforgettable hillsides. <a class="pin toggleMap closed" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/chile/valparaiso#" id="pinToggleMap" style="display: block;"><span class="showMapText">Show in Lonely Planet</span></a><br /><div class="relatedLinks clearfix"><h3 class="themeHeading">More about Valparaíso </h3><ul><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiulUQGxGe2i0q6U87FR7EK9jjO30XD0RXwL4a57c5uN9XdktDFesCVn9qrS5RqjK2X2WTdwxfKlEpfqmo2yObY0WQpnTUUPFSFUtRiyoX7xW6sX5zoc35XbE4xWthFwB9I7gUS6bVbIz_n/s1600/Valpara%C3%ADso+Chile++36.jpg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="270" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiulUQGxGe2i0q6U87FR7EK9jjO30XD0RXwL4a57c5uN9XdktDFesCVn9qrS5RqjK2X2WTdwxfKlEpfqmo2yObY0WQpnTUUPFSFUtRiyoX7xW6sX5zoc35XbE4xWthFwB9I7gUS6bVbIz_n/s400/Valpara%C3%ADso+Chile++36.jpg" width="400" /></a><li> <a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/chile/valparaiso/transport/getting-there-away">Getting there & around <span class="bottom"></span> </a> </li><li> <a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/chile/valparaiso/practical-information/money-costs">Practical information <span class="bottom"></span> </a> </li><li> <a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/chile/valparaiso/history">History <span class="bottom"></span> </a> </li><li> <a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/chile/valparaiso/travel-tips-and-articles">Tips & articles <span class="bottom"></span> </a> </li><li><a class="linkChevron" href="http://hotels.lonelyplanet.com/hotel/?RegionId=1977323&lpaffil=dest-nav-hotels">Hotels</a></li><li><a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/chile/valparaiso/forum">Forum</a></li></ul></div><div class="relatedLinks clearfix"><h3 class="themeHeading">Make it happen</h3><ul><li><a class="linkChevron" href="http://shop.lonelyplanet.com/shopSearch?q=valpara%C3%ADso%5E2+or+Chile">Shop for travel guides</a></li><li><a class="linkChevron" href="http://hotels.lonelyplanet.com/hotel/?RegionId=1977323&lpaffil=dest-nav-hotels">Search hotels</a></li><li><a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/bookings/flights.do">Cheap flights</a></li><li><a class="linkChevron" href="http://www.lonelyplanet.com/bookings/insurance.do">Travel insurance</a></li></ul><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4pFdXtUOWjkHUsbfI88m-fRYK7I0-Bd8cIdjJvq0flwcAoCyhvFjP47gdf6ZHoi39PsQK_yIPugaHoRM9Izf4aO1cUj8ryHugUCxcsVSCFeBq9eDo1IvDy_gl1JNx19WzcePb0kmn0P0y/s1600/Valpara%C3%ADso+Chile++9.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="424" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4pFdXtUOWjkHUsbfI88m-fRYK7I0-Bd8cIdjJvq0flwcAoCyhvFjP47gdf6ZHoi39PsQK_yIPugaHoRM9Izf4aO1cUj8ryHugUCxcsVSCFeBq9eDo1IvDy_gl1JNx19WzcePb0kmn0P0y/s640/Valpara%C3%ADso+Chile++9.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-pJvsT-s777E/UC5U89aN2pI/AAAAAAAAP2Q/UrYst9c_1QY/s1600/Valpara%C3%ADso+Chile++15.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-pJvsT-s777E/UC5U89aN2pI/AAAAAAAAP2Q/UrYst9c_1QY/s640/Valpara%C3%ADso+Chile++15.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-2COuOqOwCrc/UC5VgZknCLI/AAAAAAAAP5o/qWC2QB9K2Us/s1600/Valpara%C3%ADso+Chile++8.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-2COuOqOwCrc/UC5VgZknCLI/AAAAAAAAP5o/qWC2QB9K2Us/s640/Valpara%C3%ADso+Chile++8.jpg" width="640" /></a></div></div></div>
