Plaza Armas Punta Arenas

Pleasant town square surrounded by elegant mansions from the 19th century, including Sara Braun's house, now a restaurant, private club and museum. In the centre of the Plaza is an interesting monument to Magellan (in a very dandy pose) with indigenous people represented below.

Fun spot to hang out in! The live drumming on Friday night was fun to watch and the trees here are incredible!! So ancient. I loved walking through here as often as I could. Such a fresh vibe ✨

Punta Arenas is a beautiful place, the people say if you touch the indian foot you will come again so is like a tradition

Palacio Sara Braun, Plaza de Armas, Punta Arenas. Tiny and now part of an upmarket hotel but worth the look. Lifestyles of the rich in an isolated city in the late 1800s.

The tourism office of Punta Arenas is located very central. We asked for a map of the city and the lady working there provided us with one. They also offer a lot of brochures for tours in the area. The building itself is really cute and in the middle of the Plaza Armas.

We had a great visit. No crowd. Easy to walk. Beautiful views. Nicely landscaped and maintained. Open and comfortable.

A peaceful town square right in the middle of the growing city of Punta Arenas.

Lovely park with amazing (non-native) trees. Creatures memorial to Ferdinand Magellean.
