A Chilean´s capital trip

If come here some foreigner friend I would take him to a lot of places, for this way I will show him how is Santiago´s life.
First of all I would take him to know San Cristobal´s hill because from his top you can see Santiago complety, as well is a very beatifull long walk full of trees and nature.
Later this same day I would take him to the Piojera´s bar, there he could know Guachaca´s life of Santiago, this is the name of popular culture in Chile. So in the Piojera´s bar you can know some tipical character of Chile, and drink with them some tipical drinks like Terremoto, Borgoña and piscola, also you can eat some tipical dishes like Arroyado´s sandwish, Sopaipillas and a tasty Pebre.
The next day it´s necessary to do something more relax because the trip of the last day provoque to someones some head and stomach ache. So this day it´s recommendable go to Santiago´s downtown walking trough the Forestal´s Park that is very beatifull. During this trip you must know the Goberment house´s called The Moneda and the main street of Santiago The Alameda.
Another places in Santiago that a foreigner must know is Santa Lucia´s hill that is the place where Santiago was founded and Brazil´s neighbourhood that is the place where I live, as well is a neighbourhood with a lot of history, a lot of old aristocratic´s houses and with a lot of pubs to enjoy Santiago´s night.

I think that all this places are necessarynto know Santiago´s life.
