If you are in Santiago with your family, do not forget to visit green spaces. One option is the Santa Lucia Hill is located in the city center, near the National Library and other attractions.
I recommend using comfortable shoes as there are many paths and stone staircases.
The beautiful main entrance with huge iron gates that give a Victorian look.
That is in addition to a beautiful staircase that opens in the form of arms to reach a platform where a large source of water is calm with beautiful sound, reaching the source you are halfway through the stretch.
So you can take a rest watching the beautiful panoramic of the huge balcony, following the route towards the top you will find a style and a bit rough, large rocks and plants of the place, recreating the lifestyle of the Mapuche.
Also, you can find where to take a small snack and refreshment,and if you still have energy you can venture to the top to see the whole city, with its beautiful contrasts!,believe me it is worth it, the views are beautiful take your camera with you.If you have reached the exit, do not forget to pass by the Mapuche art exhibition which is on the side of the hill, you can even buy some souvenirs.
Another place to escape the madness of the city is the San Cristobal Hill Another place to escape the madness of the city is the San Cristobal Hill, has a small zoo where children can entertain themselves and towards the top we find a Catholic church and many figures
You can do the walking tour or pay a small train that takes you directly to the top making a stop at the zoo, the cost is 1,600 Chilean pesos, and if you want to go to the zoo will cost more Chilean Peso 2000. That includes the return on the train (about 6 USD).
Another place to visit is the park O `Higgins has endless activities for a family, and is located in the yellow line metro stop in the name of the park
