A gunshot shattered the quiet of Santa Lucia Hill and echoes of rebellion still linger between the ornate columns of Santiago’s Municipal Theatre. There is more to this city than traffic and cafés—its secrets are buried beneath every footstep.

This self-guided audio tour invites you beyond the tourist brochures to a Santiago mapped by intrigue and ambition. Unlock stories hiding in courtyards and whispers carried by the wind through civic halls.

What scandal forced a curtain to drop on opening night at Chile’s grandest stage? Who scaled Santa Lucia’s steep paths as revolutionaries and why did a clock strike terror into university scholars? Why do the Council chambers hum with legends of betrayal?

Move through stone, shadow, and sunlight as layers peel away to reveal political upheavals, creative outbursts, and quiet acts of defiance. The real Santiago rises up under your feet.

Begin your journey now—and let the city reveal what it keeps hidden.
