History

History of Plaza Ñuñoa

Plaza Ñuñoa is the civic and social center of the municipality: around its square are the town hall, the churches, the theaters and the food boulevard that earned it its reputation as a bohemian neighborhood.

Since the 1980s it has concentrated one of Santiago's most constant cultural scenes, with theaters, live music and a nightlife that coexists with residential use.

The area keeps the scale of mid-20th-century houses and low buildings, with tree-lined streets and small squares that make it one of the most walkable neighborhoods in the city.

A few minutes away are the Estadio Nacional, Parque Juan XXIII and the Irarrázaval axis, today served by metro lines 3 and 6.
