Today I went to take some pictures to the district of Providencia, located between the historic district and the skyscraper paradise of Las Condes, it is very charming, many restaurants, art galleries and embassies are in Providencia.

Nice pics of one of Santiago's nicest districts. I can tell you made this first on SSC and put it here next because you say that the pics are by Gronier.

Is it also a residential section of the city? Nice scrapers too.

Thanks Peo for these pics of one of the nicest neigbourhoods of Santiago.

I actually stayed at Hotel Orly for 8 nights

It was a really great value for the the price - and the staff was really nice too. And the patio of the Cafetto downstairs is a really nice place where to enjoy a pisco sour (or two... hehe).

The area was beautiful, leafy, safe at any time, full of restaurants, shops, department stores, and the metro station was right at the corner of the street. We also explored the residential streets of Providencia and they were really nice too. I really enjoyed staying in this area (and Chile in general - can't wait to go back!).
