Highlights:
Santiago, Chile's capital is nestled in a valley with the Andes as a backdrop. Centrally located, it makes the perfect base from which to visit both Northern and Southern Chile, as well as to see the sights of the central region. Santiago's climate is mild and Mediterranean, very similar to Northern California. Although winters are mild, when it rains in Santiago, it's snowing in the Andes, and for those who like to ski you'll be glad to know that the Ski areas of Valle Nevado, Colorado and La Parva are only an hour away. The coast, west of Santiago, is beautiful and fun to visit any time of year but particularly in the summer. There are numerous popular beaches, wonderful scenery, and many resorts as well as rustic small coastal towns. In theory you could go skiing, play tennis and lie on the beach all in the same day! Founded in 1541 by Pedro de Valdivia, Santiago is now an interesting mixture of Colonial, Victorian and ultra-modern office buildings.
