In the heart of the Andes, colonial textiles weave a story that transcends time and space. Their beauty, technical sophistication, and diversity of uses and materials both conceal and reveal processes of cultural transformation and redefinition during the colonial period. The exhibition Contacts: Colonial Textiles of the Andes presents works that illustrate the effects of colonization and interbreeding, and highlights the role of textile art in shaping Andean society between the 16th and 19th centuries.
By offering the public a collection of pieces of extraordinary value, the Chilean Museum of Pre-Columbian Art seeks to show that these contacts were more than a simple encounter between Spaniards and Indigenous peoples. In colonial America, these contacts were complex, involving imposition and resistance, sometimes violent and sometimes creative, generating a new social, political, and cultural reality.
Colonial textiles are a testament to this and reflect Andean creativity. They are the result of the introduction of new materials, tools, and techniques, along with the preservation of a rich Indigenous textile tradition. These works, which interweave designs from diverse origins, not only capture the reality of this period but also celebrate the resilience and rich Andean cultural heritage that endures through the centuries.

Santa Lucía Hill

Mountain climbing

番茄Simin

Looking out over the best attractions in the Andes. I climbed up without taking the cable car. The distance is not very far but the ground seems to be repairing, I fell and it was not worth the loss. In addition to watching the scenery on the top of the mountain, remember to eat the classic cold drink of the locals. It seems that the pudding plus the cold drink of beans tastes good. It is said that Chilean locals will also have a drink on the top of the mountain. I honestly take the cable car down the mountain, 3400, 4 dollars is not expensive. Or the attractions that must be brushed.

Plaza de Armas

Historic buildings

开心

The weapons square in Santiago, the capital of Chile, was a bit scary to see the Raiders before going there. It was said that there were riots, thieves, robberies, etc., so I was very cautious. I said that the mobile phone and camera could not be exposed. It made our hearts panic. When we got there, it was really the mobile phone that we didn&rsquo;t dare to take it out. Seeing that the church is very beautiful, took out a photo and quickly collected the pocket. Later, we entered the church and circled the square, and it didn&#39;t feel as terrible as it was written on the Internet! Then I saw that there was someone on the balcony of the museum next to it. We also went in. The museum is free, but the bag needs to be stored. You can use the kind of locker that looks like a dollar coin to store by yourself. Go upstairs and there is a room that can climb to the balcony of the clock tower on the top floor. But you need to wait for it to be about 20 minutes, and you can take a group of about 6 people at a time, because the stairs are very narrow and can only be passed by one person. When you get to the top, you can take the last picture overlooking the church. It feels good.
