A
Cerro San Cristóbal
Smog permitting, the best views over Santiago are from the peaks and viewpoints of the Parque Metropolitano, better known as Cerro San Cristóbal. At 722 ha, the park is Santiago’s biggest green space, but it’s still decidedly urban: cable cars and a funicular carry you between different landscaped sections, and roads through it are aimed at cars rather than hikers. The park lies north of Bellavista and Providencia and has entrances in both neighborhoods: the cheapest and most logical way to visit is to buy a joint cable car and funicular ticket (adult/child one way CH$2500/1500) to start on one side and finish on the other.

B
Jardín Zoológico
The Jardín Zoológico houses an aging bunch of neglected exotic animals, however, it is probably the only place in Chile where you are assured a glimpse of the elusive pudu deer.
