Great Shopping Sep 03, 2008
When I travel, I like to bring home traditional gifts that reflect the local culture. Pueblito los Dominicos is a small artisan shopping village on the outskirts of Santiago that offers MANY small shops that carry these types of items. Set on the grounds of an old church and highlighted by the Andes Mountains in the background, this is great place to kill a few hours and get those hard-to-find local gifts to bring home for you family and friends. There are some small cafes that sell snacks and finger foods, but I wouldln't recommend considering this to be a place to get a meal.

The nice thing with this is that it is a fixed location and all of the “stalls” are little buildings where the people actually work and make the items – carving, sculpting, painting… Craft markets |

Well, we're back in Arizona... boo! On the plane (no problems, by the way!) we were all quite melancholy about leaving. There's just something about Santiago that makes me feel as if a part of me is missing. Arriving in Phoenix, I kept thinking that…Pueblito de los Dominicos, next to the big church. The church is so famous, it's actually on the Chilean 2000-peso note! We didn't go to the church; instead we went shopping in the Pueblito market, where artisans and craftspeople sell their creations… Back in the States... and a recap of Chile |
