🇨🇱 Santiago | A Safe & Scenic Route (Tested & Approved!) ✨
After 3 days in Santiago, I still fell in love with this city—though safety concerns kept us from exploring freely. Here’s a secure yet fun itinerary (perfect for cautious travelers!): 1️⃣ Hop-On Hop-Off Bus (Turistik) 🚌 2-hour loop covering 10 key stops (like Plaza de Armas). We stayed on the bus the whole time—great for sightseeing without stress!🎉🎉 💡 Tips: Track buses in real-time via their app. Tickets: ~$33 USD (buy onboard). 2️⃣ San Cristóbal Hill (No Hiking Needed!) 🚠 Uphill: Take the funicular from Pio Nono Station. Downhill: Ride the cable car to Oasis Station (or vice versa!). 🌄 Panoramic views of Santiago + the Andes! 3️⃣ Chill in Parks (Spring Blooms!) 🌸 Parque de Las Esculturas: Open-air sculpture garden. Parque Recreativo Canino: Huge park with black-necked swans + lakeside dining at Mestizo (delicious!).😀 Locals love picnicking here—super relaxing vibe! ☀️ 🏨 Hotel Rec: Four Points by Sheraton (Las Condes) Safe area + walking distance to: Gran Torre Costanera (tallest building in S. America!). Asian food galore (Chinese/Japanese/Korean—tastes like home! 🥢). Final Thoughts 💭:✨✨ Santiago’s beauty shines even on a cautious route! Perfect for those who want views + culture without the risks.✨ #SantiagoSafeTravel #ChileDiaries #CityViews #NoStressTravel #UrbanExplorer #AndesVibes 🏙️🏔️
