After getting to Santiago, we travelled to Concepcion! It's famous now for the earthquake that happened in Feburary of this year. Now it's been over 6 months, the city has been cleaned up a lot, but there's still damage. Here's some of the sites of the Earthquake Tour, Tat's friend Ariel was our guide.
This is probably one of the most famous buildings that was shown on the news around the world. The two buildings behind it are the same as the one that fell, but they're still standing.
This is the building on O'Higgins street. As you can see, the bottom half is fine, the top half had so much damage because they decided to build without a necessary pilar in order to have more space in a gymnasium.
