Providencia

Dense, walkable commune within Santiago's northeastern zone, Providencia is known for its concentration of cafés, restaurants, and green spaces spread across parks and plazas. The area is also home to a significant number of embassies and retains a stock of large, older houses — once occupied by Santiago's elite — now largely converted to offices. The Andes are close, and the commune sits within reach of the Mapocho River.
