Santiago's Historic Heart
Santiago's historic center is one of South America's most layered urban landscapes, where colonial foundations, republican grandeur, and twentieth-century ambition exist side by side on streets that have witnessed revolutions, earthquakes, political upheaval, and extraordinary resilience. This walking tour immerses you in the heart of that story, drawing together the plazas, palaces, churches, and civic buildings that shaped a nation and continue to define its identity.
