Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport serves as the gateway to the city.
With a sprawling cityscape, the Andes to the east, and the Cordillera of the Coast to the west, the opportunities and sights to be had in Santiago are near endless. At places like
Parque Metropolitano and Parque Forestal, a natural ambiance can be found.
