A colombian friend

Five years ago, I met a very good friend, his name is Sebastian and he is from Bogota, Colombia. I knew him in a travel that I did with my family, because my dad was a friend of Sebastian`s cousin, so we were invited to his home for dinner, and in that time I knew him. Since that time I have been talking with him by mail. And he told me that when he finished college, his parents are going to give him a travel, so he is going to visit Chile.
He have to visit to many beautiful places in Santiago, but my favourite is The Andes mountain range, specially El Colorado, there we can spend at least 2 days, trying to visit all; we can visit the esqui center, and all the restaurants near of it.
But obviusly, we have to visit all the turistic places near Santiago, like the Plaza de Armas and in front of it we can go to the Cathedral. And if we want to see art and culture we can go to the Precolombian Art Museum, La Moneda Palace, the Zoo, and the Casa Colorada, where we can find a complete Chile`s history about colonial period. And to the San Cristobal Hill, where we are going to find a natural view of Santiago.
And finally, we have to go to Sewel, a miner`s town. I fall in love with beause it when I read a Maria Eugenia Lorenzzini`s novel, and it was about the life of people who live there in 1945. This place was called like City of the Stairs, and now it is a cultural patrimony.
These are my favourite places...
