Unlike some people, I like Santiago city. I like above
all Ñuñoa, Providencia and Santiago´s center. I like these areas because in
Ñuñoa and Providencia there are a lot of beautiful parks and the streets are surrounded
of big trees, and sidewalks are wide and well lighting. The parks in this area
are my favorites, above all Sculpture´s Park in Providencia.
In Santiago´s center there are a lot of historical
places like Londres 38, that was a torture center in dictatorial period of Chile,
or the house of government, etc. Also there are a lot of bars, restaurants, different
kind of shops, etc.
Well, there are
horrible things too, like inequality, smog, traffic issues and other social
problems like drug trafficking, poverty, etc.
Inequality is the social problem that I hate most in Santiago. We can say that Santiago is a city of ghettos, because the areas in the city are so demarcate by social status and money. In Santiago there are areas for poor class, middle class, and hight class. But this situation only shows the kind of society that we are. I think it is not a problem of the city, is a problem of our society.

I think those
are the things that we have to change of our city, but first we have to change society.
I think that the parks are very important in the city
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more. The city is only a reflection of our society. Providencia and Nunoa are ares with a lot of money. This is why there are green areas.
ReplyDeleteThe way to change society is with better education everywhere. This is the first real change we need. I think :)
You're so right! The society is projected in the lifestyle of the city, Every day, we have opportunities to change our perspective about our society and redirect their goals about what we want and what we expect of the place we live.
