SANTIAGO CHILI

We are still under the charm of this ultra clean and save city..I will describe it at the Swiss of South America.
There is plenty of excellent restaurants mainly serving Peruvian cuisine. Most of them have terrace.
The local drink Pisco Sour is excellent but very very strong! We also enjoy the local wine specially Altair.
I will recommand to stay at the Ritz Carlton. For its location at El Golf, for its swimming pool and gym on the roof top. For the service and mainly because its is relatively small . A "W" hotel is suppose to open soon.

Restaurants:
Puerto Fuy. Sea food. Modern cuisine
Cuerovaca. Meat restaurant
Astrid&Gaston. Peruvian cuisine. Same owner as La Mar more up market
La Mar. Peruvian cuisine. Great terrace




We also recomand Ox and Tierra Noble, which we did not have time to test.
You will find also many nice restaurants on El Bosque, around El Golf which is the Business district.



Winery: you can take a priviate car to bring you to some winery.

We visite one near Santa Cruz, Neyens. Which we enjoy as it was absolutly not a tourist attraction.
Lunch at Asador Del Valle. Chilien Barbecue . The chef is a "Toque Blanche"




Shopping & art gallery: Av. Alfonso de Cordova - Av.Nueva Costanera.

Don't miss the Animal art gallery.
Also very nice shop Sarika Rodrik in El Golf







Market: we really enjoy visiting local market when we visit a city.

You will discover plenty of fish and sea food at Mercado central .

Wisata Di Sleman - Pesona Tebing Andesit di Kalikuning

Wisata Di Sleman - Pesona Tebing Andesit di Kalikuning | Kalikuning merupakan kawasan wisata alam sekaligus Camping Ground di lereng selatan Gunung Merapi, tepatnya di Kecamatan Cangkringan, Sleman, Yogyakarta. Kalikuning terletak di bawah Kaliadem yang pernah menjadi saksi keganasan letusan merapi tahun 2006 silam dimana pada saat itu dua orang relawan tewas dalam bunker akibat terjangan awajejak petualangn panas atau yang biasa di sebut wedhus gembel.

Kawasan wisata Kalikuning ini memang cukup luas. Selain dijadikan objek wisata dan Camping Ground, ada juga daerah di Kalikuning yang memiliki tebing- tebing batuan andesit. Walapun belum banyak di jamah, akan tetapi tebing andesit di daerah Kalikuning ini sering juga di jadikan sebagai arena panjat tebing, khususnya bagi para pemanjat yang telah mahir mengingat kesulitan yang sangat tinggi dalam pemanjatan pada tebing dengan batuan andesit. Gugusan batuan yang berdiri kokoh di sekitar sungai membuat pemandangan yang sangat mangagumkan. Cukup banyak daerah di Kalikuning yang mempunyai bentukan tebing andesit seperti ini.


 Kalikuning jejak petualang pic
Untuk mencapai lokasi tebing andesit yang ada dalam foto- foto di bawah kita harus berjalan kaki sekitar 1 km dari jalan aspal yang menuju ke Kaliadem menyusuri jalan setapak yang biasa dilewati oleh penduduk lokal untuk mencari rumput. Tiba di lokasi tebing andesit tersebut rasanya tenang banget karena suasana alam yang sepi dengan pemandangan kelok- kelok bentukan sungai tak berair dan tebing- tebing yang tinggi membuat kita serasa menemukan dunia baru, berbeda dengan kehidupan kota yang penuh dengan kebisingan dan polusi. Daerah Kalikuning terlihat sangat menyejukkan dengan banyaknya pepohonan di sekitarnya yang di dominasi oleh pohon- pohon pinus, serta hawa dingin dataran tinggi di lereng merapi ini.
