Palacio de La Moneda
Look at the Neoclassical lines of this building, designed by architect Gioacchino Toesca. This is Palacio de La Moneda, a building of public administration that had its inception in 1784. While it is currently a Tentative World Heritage Site, the building also functions as a mint. I have seen plenty of folks stop to admire the facade here; it really anchors the surrounding plaza and gives you a sense of the city's formal history. It is a great spot to pause and take in the scale of the architecture before moving on to your next shot.
