Torre Telefónica Chile
Located in the Providencia, this 34-story office building stands 143 meters tall. Visitors typically visit the site to view its architecture and its role as a prominent feature of the Santiago skyline. Completed in 1996, it serves as a landmark within the city's commercial district.
Getting There
The building is centrally located and accessible from the city center via the Metro. Depending on your starting point in downtown Santiago, the trip usually takes 10 to 20 minutes by train or taxi.
