Santiago is Chile’s capital with a population just short of 6 million. Its location is impressive, sitting as it does between the Pacific Ocean and the mighty Andes mountain range. This modern, sophisticated and vast city is in the main, clean and tidy, feels fairly European in many respects, yet has the hustle and bustle of any other Latin American city.
