About Santiago
Santiago is the capital of Chile and the centre of its government, finance and commerce. Set in a valley with the Andes rising to the east, it is a common starting point for trips to the wine regions, ski resorts and the Pacific coast, and it is home to the headquarters of many Chilean and regional companies.
Santiago uses Chile Standard Time, UTC-4, and moves to Chile Summer Time, UTC-3, during the southern-hemisphere summer. Because its clocks change in the opposite season to those in North America and Europe, the time difference with New York or Madrid can shift by up to two hours across the year. Not all of Chile shares this zone: Easter Island and the southern Magallanes region keep different times.
