Santiago is divided into comunas (districts) and then into barrios (neighborhoods). Founded in 1541 by Spain, Santiago suffered repeatedly from earthquakes, floods and civil disorder. It is no wonder its barrios are unique and distinct — some with steep terrain crawling up into the foothills of the Andes, some sitting close to the urban center and boasting busy cafés, music clubs, restaurants, food markets, and new residential and commercial high-rises.

Switzerland’s Lavaux Region Tempts Wine Lovers with Bottles They Can’t Get Back Home

Its wine, on the other hand, proves as elusive as an easy ascent up the Matterhorn.
