Chile is a long, narrow country stretching along South America’s western edge, with more than 6,000km of Pacific Ocean coastline. Santiago, its capital, sits in a valley surrounded by the Andes and Chilean Coast Range mountains. The city’s palm-lined Plaza de Armas contains the neoclassical cathedral and the National History Museum. The massive Parque Metropolitano offers swimming pools, a botanical garden, and a zoo. Chile is certainly a land of contrasts geographically. It features arid deserts, beaches, fjords, volcanoes, snow-capped mountains, lakes, forests, and everything in between including ice fields and glaciers.
