You'll find everything from small cafés with WiFi, exclusive boutiques, great bookstores and fine handicrafts to big malls and long shopping strips that offer all of the top brands. This metropolis, which is home to over six million people, offers hundreds of options for every budget or interest and activities that can be enjoyed throughout the year.
The Central Valley is located between the Coastal Range and Andes and has an extension of 500 kilometres / 310 miles from north to south and it has many exciting places worth visiting.
