Plaza Perú, Public square in El Golf district, Las Condes, Chile
Plaza Perú is a small square in the El Golf neighborhood of Las Condes, Santiago, on Avenida Isidora Goyenechea between Don Carlos, Carmencita and Augusto Leguía Norte. It has modern playgrounds, a large birdcage, and 163 trees donated by companies, including jacaranda, araucaria excelsa, cedar of Lebanon, American oak and Chilean palm.
The square emerged in the 1940s as part of the El Golf neighborhood's development on former Goyenechea family land. The area grew as part of Santiago's modern eastward expansion.
The plaza takes its name from a neighboring country, reflecting regional connections in the district. Visitors notice painted benches created by local artists that give the space its distinctive character.
The square is easily accessible by public transit, as the Tobalaba and El Golf metro stations on Line 1 are nearby. An underground parking facility with multiple spaces offers 24-hour parking for visitors.
The Sunday antique fair on the north side facing Isidora Goyenechea is run by the municipality and its cultural corporation as Anticuarios en Las Condes. The same spot hosts an organic market on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Near the underground car park entrance on Augusto Leguía Norte stand two sculptures by Octavio Román, Medusa and Sirena.
