The colorful and lively Bellavista neighborhood is home to the Universidad de Chile, La Chascona (poet Pablo Neruda's Santiago abode) and many restaurants, bars and jazz clubs.
A mural of Pablo Neruda near his home in Barrio Bellavista. Neruda, who won the Nobel Prize in 1971, was a poet, a diplomat, a communist politician and an avid collector of random and interesting items that are displayed in his three Chilean homes: dolls, nautical instruments, playing cards and, of course, books.
A street vendor sells churros (plain or filled with dulce de leche), fried and dusted with powdered sugar.
