Plaza Brasil

Access to the square is via the Cumming station of the Santiago Metro.

Plaza Brasil has a long tradition and history, linked to the cañada (English: glen) of Diego García de Cáceres.

[1] As the years passed, the square - located in a traditional neighborhood - was gradually abandoned as the sector underwent a slow depopulation, due mainly to the inorganic growth of the city of Santiago.

Following the 1985 earthquake, the sector began to be rebuilt and new residents arrived, giving a new impetus to Barrio Brasil, which is now home to numerous restaurants, entertainment centers, schools and institutes of higher education.

They represent various cultural and geographic symbols of Chilean identity.
