An event that we together with the Chilean Olympic Committee and the South American Sports Organization, are honoured to host. Our mission is to provide the best organizational, sporting, and infrastructural conditions to strengthen the development of the Master category in the 15 countries that belong to ODESUR. The local organizing team is preparing to live an unforgettable experience of a Mega Event. This South American competition aims to promote the Master category, giving continuity to those established in their sports, as well as to those who began late. We expect a real celebration of sports that allows the reunion of athletes, their friends, and families. We know that the Master games are an example and an inspiration for future generations, in whose systematic practices, they demonstrate the value that sport acquires as a life model. This is precisely what athletes transmit in their skills, and we would love to see this throughout different sports in Santiago de Chile. Santiago has many attractions to discover; mountains, parks, trails, shopping centres, vineyards, and a rich gastronomy, which makes it the ideal scenario to mix leisure, family enjoyment, sportsmanship and sports. We hope that this event meets your expectations, that it will be an unforgettable experience and that you can take away the memory of having been a protagonist of the First South American Master Games ODESUR Santiago 2021.

Santiago, the capital of Chile, belongs to the Metropolitan Region, one of the 16 regions into which the Chilean territory is administratively divided. Currently, it has more than 7 million inhabitants and is the most populated city in Chile. Home to the executive and judicial power, it is also a world-class economic and cultural centre. 4.1 CULTURE Parks, museums, restaurants and bars, together with concerts, parties, bookstores, pubs, craft fairs, and first-class architectural projects, give life to a modern and cosmopolitan city. Constructions such as the Gabriela Mistral Cultural Center (GAM), a monumental building dedicated to arts and culture; the La Moneda Palace Cultural Center, a museum hidden underground with various exhibits, the Mirador Interactive Museum (MIM) stands out, attracting visits from children and adults for a unique experience with science. Not to be missed are the traditional destinations, such as the Central Market, the Fine Arts Palace, the La Moneda Palace (seat of the executive branch), San Cristóbal Hill, the Cathedral and the Plaza de Armas, and the magnificent Bahaí Temple. Among other attractions, it has the highest viewpoint in South America, at 300 meters above sea level, in the Gran Torre Santiago of the Costanera Center. The Metropolitan Park, the largest "green lung" in Santiago, stands out in the middle of the city. With 700 hectares, it is one of the four largest urban parks in the world. 4.2 GEOGRAPHY AND CLIMATE The country is a long and narrow strip of land, Santiago in particular is at a distance of 134 kilometres to the coast of Valparaiso and 74 kilometres from the mountain range, Farellones. This unique connectivity makes the Chilean capital a favorite destination for tourists who want to enjoy walks, mountain sports, wine tours, ports and beaches. The average temperature in Santiago in March is between 28º and 9º. Generally sunny and with little rainPág. 9 4.3 CURRENCY AND EXCHANGE The Chilean peso is the country's official currency and is represented by the $ sign. The exchange rate varies constantly. One dollar is equivalent to 800 (calculated during March 2020). Changes can be made at the airport, exchange offices or banks. In Chile, the use of credit cards is widespread, and they are accepted in almost all established businesses, hotels, restaurants, and travel agencies. We also recommend that you use local currency for minor expenses 4.4 BUSINESS HOURS Offices open from Monday to Friday, from 9:00 to 18:00. Banks open from Monday to Friday from 9:00 to 14:00.
