After being sent by Francisco Pizarro from the government of New Castile and making a long journey from Cuzco, the Extremaduran conqueror Pedro de Valdivia arrived in the Mapocho valley on December 13, 1540. On February 12, 1541, Pedro de Valdivia formally founded the city of "Santiago del Nuevo Extremo", the official name of the city in honor of the Apostle Santiago, patron saint of Spain, in the vicinity of the Huelén hill, renamed "Santa Lucía" by the conqueror]]> 2021-10-21 16:16:03 UTC https://padlet.com/cristhianssj11/o59hzkuhkwi69swa/wish/1834073830 Geography cristhianssj11 https://padlet.com/cristhianssj11/o59hzkuhkwi69swa/wish/1834076281 Being located on the 33° south parallel, Santiago is at a similar latitude to the cities of Cape Town in South Africa; Perth, Adelaide and Sydney in Australia; Mendoza, Rosario and Buenos Aires in Argentina, Uruguay and the state of Rio Grande do Sul in Brazil. Being also located on the 70th Meridian west, the city is on the same longitude as the territory of Nunavut, and Quebec City in Canada; the states of Maine and Massachusetts in the United States, Isla Española in the Dominican Republic; Aruba, Venezuela, Colombia, part of the state of Amazonas in Brazil, the Department of Loreto in Peru, and some sections of Argentina.
Santiago's city time is governed by Chile's official time -UTC-3 in summer and UTC-4 in winter .
Although there is sometimes confusion, Santiago is not the midpoint of Chile; if only the continental territory is considered, it is the beach resort of Playa Blanca, located in the commune of Coronel in the Biobío region. If the national territory is considered from the northern border with Peru to the southern end of the Chilean Antarctic Territory, the midpoint is Punta Arenas.

Within the city, the number of green areas reached 2686 public and 2625 private hectares in 1992, equivalent to 2.5% of the consolidated urban area. The enclosure of the city has led to the accumulation of a layer of smog over the city in recent decades, which is aggravated during the winter months due to various climatic phenomena such as thermal inversion and the coastal trough and the considerable reduction of circulating air masses in the basin.]]> 2021-10-21 16:19:44 UTC https://padlet.com/cristhianssj11/o59hzkuhkwi69swa/wish/1834084176 Typical Dishes cristhianssj11 https://padlet.com/cristhianssj11/o59hzkuhkwi69swa/wish/1834091482
