My neighborhood

My neighborhood, located in the commune of Santiago, has many green areas. That´s because it´s near the Forestall Park and the Bustamante Park. It has also a lot of cultural activity. The Fine Arts Museum, the movie theatre “El Biógrafo”, and a large variety of literary coffee places, are close at hand. This way, you can enjoy pleasant afternoon walks that include a lot of different places to visit. In the other hand, the Lastarria St. has many exclusive shops, restaurants, and hip pubs, which is why it´s so attractive, especially for foreigners. Also, the place where I live in is a bohemian neighborhood. The night activity is very dynamic. In the surrounds we have the Bellavista sector, where there are a big amount of bars, pubs, discotheques and restaurants where you can go out dancing and have a moment of quality entertainment.

I live in Las Condes, it’s located in the eastern side of Santiago. I live near one of the biggest avenues of the city: Apoquindo. My apartment is located in Luis Rodriguez Street, a little and quiet one. There are only two big buildings, I live in one of them, in the eighth floor. So near of my house is the last subway station “Military School”, and the buses pass almost out of my apartment. So I think this is a very good location. There is a Market, a Video Store, a library and a restaurant just a short walk from my house. But it’s a quiet place too, from the other side, there are little streets with trees and grass, so this place is special to take a ride in bicycle, and I like it so much.

I live in Vitacura. My area is very quiet and familiar. In this area there are many buildings, but too many trees and parks, making it a very nice and pleasant place to live.
My house has a large garden that at this time is full of flowers. Every weekend we do barbecues with my family. Is very entertaining and relaxing!!!
From my room you can see very well Manquehue hill, I like that a lot and makes me feel that I am not immersed in the city all the time. My area is a great area to live by their green areas, such as the Bicentennial Park, and family life!!!

The area where I live is not really special. It’s a very quiet and pleasant neighborhood. A few years ago was the best place of Providencia, but all the classical architecture of the place was destroyed.
Still, it's a nice place and very central. You have the subway a couple of steps and two great park where one can go for a walk. There are also two cafes where you can eat delicious cakes on Sundays morning.
