San Bernardo, Administrative capital in Maipo Province, Chile

San Bernardo stretches across 155 square kilometers at 570 meters elevation within the Santiago Metropolitan Region, connected to the greater Santiago conurbation.

The establishment of San Bernardo in 1821 marked a significant development in the Maipo Province, leading to its current status as a provincial capital.

The Festival Nacional del Folklore, initiated in 1972, brings together performers and musicians at the end of February for traditional Chilean music competitions.

The city offers direct access to the Metro de Santiago transportation system, facilitating connections throughout the metropolitan area for its 286,000 residents.

Chena's Pucará, an Incan ceremonial site within the city limits, features architectural elements shaped to resemble a puma.
