Torre Entel, Television tower in Santiago, Chile
Torre Entel is a television tower in Santiago that rises over 127 meters and features an observation deck for visitors. The structure stands at the intersection of Alameda and Amunategui streets in the heart of downtown.
The tower was built starting in 1970 under President Eduardo Frei Montalva and opened in 1976. Its completion marked an important moment in Santiago's modern infrastructure development.
The tower stands next to the Government Palace and shapes the downtown skyline of the Chilean capital. Its modern form represents the country's connection to technological progress during the late 20th century.
The observation deck offers a panoramic view over the city from an elevated position. The central location is easily accessible by public transportation and within walking distance of other downtown attractions.
