Santiago de Chile Live Cam

Chile is a country whose territory is characterized by being between the Andes Mountains on one side and the Pacific Ocean on the other. In the central zone, where the Metropolitan region is located, the hills in the form of chains predominate, creating valleys in many sectors. The city of Santiago is located in one of them, where the urban space has developed rapidly in recent decades. One of these mountain ranges, which forms the Metropolitan Park of Santiago, crosses the capital and constitutes, without a doubt, an urban landmark that gives the city a special characteristic. As the city grows, this green space is reduced in proportion to the city, but at the same time, it grows in importance.

Currently, the Metropolitan Park, of 722 hectares, is made up of the San Cristóbal, Pirámide, Chacarillas and Los Gemelos hills; in addition to the sectors called Bosque Santiago, Tupahue, Mapulemu, Mahuidahue, among others. On the other hand, around 150 ha. they constitute urban parks that are distributed in various communes of Santiago such as the Mapuhue, Brasil, Mapocho Poniente, Cerro Blanco and Violeta Parra parks.
