| Santiago,
Chile |
| Santiago, the capital of Chile, is located near the
Andes Mountains and two hours from the Pacific Ocean.
The coastline stretches for 2,500 miles. Inhabited by
five million, Santiago is a modern city with colonial
character and history. You can visit various parts of
the city easily by subway, bus or taxi. There are wonderful
travel opportunities for you outside of Santiago, too.
You can visit the beach at Viña del Mar, picturesque
Valparaiso, ski resorts or vineyards to try Chilean
wines. One semester in Chile may not be enough time
to see everything. Have you considered studying abroad
for the academic year? |
