New Year's Eve 2015


Santiago is made up of 52 neighborhoods, each neighborhood sponsors fireworks.  Siting at the foot of the Andes, the highest peaks in the Americas, the city is littered with hills.  Some fireworks are set off on the hills and others at historical landmarks.  We climbed to the roof of a 23 story building and were able to view many fireworks.






Half of Chile's population lives in the Santiago metropolitan area.  So when you look out over the city, you just see a sea of lights.
