Parque de los Reyes

Parque de los Reyes is an urban park along the south bank of the Mapocho River with sports courts, green spaces, and recreation facilities spread across about 31 hectares. The layout includes areas for various activities from organized sports to casual outdoor use.

The park opened in 1992 as part of Santiago's riverbank development projects. Its creation marked a turning point in how the city used its waterfront areas for public recreation.

The nearby cultural centers host performances and exhibitions throughout the year, drawing both locals and visitors to the area for music and art events.

The park is busiest on weekends, with free sports activities and group programs running in the mornings and early afternoons. It's best to arrive early to secure good spots and avoid crowds during peak hours.

The space includes a dedicated skate area and an experimental art center housed in a former kennel building. These unusual features give the park a distinct character beyond typical recreational spaces.
