• Bahá’í Temple - Explore one of Santiago’s most extraordinary and inspiring sites: the Bahá’í Temple of South America. Completed in 2016 by architect Siamak Hariri, this temple stands as a symbol of unity and openness to all, regardless of faith.

Its architecture is breathtaking—featuring nine translucent wings made of cast glass and marble that subtly change with the light, creating an almost ethereal presence against the sky. The design has received major international accolades for its beauty, innovation, and spiritual significance.

Nestled peacefully at the foothills of the Andes, the temple offers expansive city views and a tranquil natural setting perfect for reflection and quiet inspiration. As visitors explore, they will learn about the Bahá’í faith, which is based on principles of equality, harmony, and the shared dignity of humanity.

This experience is more than just a visit—it’s an opportunity to breathe, slow down, and reconnect with a sense of peace and perspective.

• Mussio Design - Discover one of Chile’s most cherished treasures: lapis lazuli, the deep-blue semi-precious stone found only in Chile and Afghanistan. Celebrated since ancient times for its vibrant color and golden pyrite flecks, it has long been associated with wisdom, protection, and inner clarity.

Visitors will tour a workshop where skilled artisans cut, polish, and set the stone into exquisite jewelry and decorative pieces. Observing their work up close reveals how each creation is crafted with patience, artistry, and cultural pride rooted in Andean tradition. The artisans are eager to share their process.

Beautiful pieces made from Chilean copper, the country’s most iconic mineral and a symbol of its land and history, are also available. From minimalist jewelry to handcrafted art objects, each item tells a story of origin and craftsmanship.

This is the perfect opportunity to select a meaningful, locally made souvenir—something authentic that will keep the connection to Chile alive long after the journey ends.
