In

everything. It had a “tourist” section that sell souvenirs and seafood
restaurants. It also had some counters that sell tour packages. We didn’t spend
so much time here. After bought Moai (easter island statue), we decided to back
to hotel and get our luggage. We took turbus from Alamameda bus terminal to
Santiago Airport. Our flight by Skyairlines from Santiago, to Lima was at 15.10

August 2016, Santiago
We
arrived at Santiago Chile Airport at 08.00 am. We followed the sign to the gate
where the bus to downtown would stop. We found the bus ticket counter. There
were two bus operators, Turbus and Centropuerto. We chose Turbus because it was
clear that the bus will stop at Alamada Bus Terminal. The price was CLP 1700
per peson one way. The bus stopped at several bus stops, including Pajaritos
Bus Terminal. The last stop was Alameda Bus Terminal. We got off here, and walked
less then 3 minutes to Ibis Hotel.

Nijmegen

We arrived at Nijmegen train station, it took only 15 minutes from Arnhem central train station. Nijmegen is the oldest city in the Netherlands. Like the other cities in Holland, the old town was close from the train station. We just followed the clear sign to centruum. The first place we see was the Grote Markt. In this square, we saw the Waaggebouw (weighing house), the beautiful old renaissance building from 1600 and now it serves as a restaurant, the bronze statue of Mariken Nieumeghen, a chief character from 15th century and the entrance to the St. Stevenskerk, a Romanesque Gothic church. The church was already closed when we arrived, so we just can admire its beautiful façade.
