Barrio Concha y Toro, Cultural quarter in Santiago, Chile.

The neighborhood features narrow cobblestone streets and European-style mansions arranged in a medieval pattern near Alameda boulevard in central Santiago.

The area originated from the Diaz Gana Palace grounds, which Enrique Concha y Toro purchased and his wife Teresa Cazotte subdivided into residential lots in 1915.

Notable Chilean writers Joaquin Edwards Bello and Vicente Huidobro resided in this district, which now hosts regular design fairs and historical tours.

The district connects directly to Santiago's public transportation system through Republic Station on Metro Line 1 and multiple bus routes.

Architects including Larrain Bravo and Smith Solar designed residences incorporating Gothic, Renaissance, and Neoclassical elements throughout the quarter.
