Santiago
This modern cosmopolitan Capital of Chile is one the great cities of South America. Located in the central part of the country, this city of 5 million is situated at 1600 feet above sea level, at the base of the great snow covered Andes. Skyscrapers dominate the main commercial district while other parts of the city are more reminiscent of 19th century Europe. City life in Santiago is a vibrant mixture of bustling markets, packed cafes, interesting museums, shopping and a night life that does not quit. Santiago is also a great location for students who love outdoor activities. Because of its central location, skiing, surfing and wine tasting are all conveniently close by. Our Spanish school is located in the residential neighborhood of Providencia. This is a quiet section of the city, but is still close to all the attractions Santiago has to offer.
