Santiago


City






Today we're going to talk about Santiago. Each and every one of us views the city form a different perspective that depends on many things. For example, I  was born in the ninth region but have spent most of my life here. However,  I have had the chance to live in the north of England for some time. I also spent some time in Germany when I studied languages, and have visited some places in Europe.  I have also visited some cities in Latin America and elsewhere. All different places shaped by history, architecture, commerce and people. Regardless of these things, your personal situation and frame of mind can also affect the way you view a city.
 I must say having seen places which seem a lot dirtier and also a lot cleaner, I like Santiago city.  I certainly think a number of things could be done to make it a more livable place especially in particular areas, the poorer boroughs  need more parks and community centers .  
Personally,  I think the center of  Santiago is a nice place because it offers a combination of forms and colours. I dislike the hostile attitude of a number of people but I hope that will change little by little.
I would always recommend places like "la vega " or "mercado central"or  Parque Almagro, among others, to a foreign person.
  Since in this moment of our lives we spend most our time here, lets express opinions.

  1. I do not agree with that Santiago is a good place to live . The houses are very small , people run through the streets , besides being the most polluted city in Chile . I am from Santiago but I don´t like Santiago, I want to live in another city :/

  11. I agree with other people in that Santiago is ugly and dirty, but it has great places too!

    Cities are full of people, then they're full of history and stories too
