EDITORS COMMENTS
Cerro San Cristobal, or the Hill of San Cristobal, is a prominent landmark in Santiago, Chile's capital city. The hill, whose original indigenous name was Tupahue, has been an essential part of the city's landscape since pre-Columbian times. In this early 1910s photograph, we see the hill's lush greenery, with its winding paths leading up to the summit. The image captures the serene beauty of the hill, which stands in stark contrast to the bustling city below. The hill is named after Saint Christopher, the patron saint of travelers, and is home to several attractions, including a large statue of the saint, a funicular railway, and a beautiful viewpoint overlooking the city. The statue of San Cristobal, which was erected in 1904, is a popular tourist destination and a symbol of Santiago's rich cultural heritage. The hill's history is deeply rooted in the city's past. It was once used as a defensive fortification by the Mapuche people, the indigenous inhabitants of the region, to protect against Spanish invaders. Later, during the colonial period, it was used as a lookout point to spot enemy ships approaching the city. Today, it is a beloved recreational area for locals and tourists alike, offering a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of urban life. This photograph is a testament to the enduring beauty and significance of Cerro San Cristobal in Santiago's history and culture. Its lush greenery and iconic statue of San Cristobal continue to draw visitors from around the world, making it a must-see destination for anyone visiting the city.
