Its image, visible from the farthest points of the capital, is a must for photographic postcards or a common point of reference.

Architecture The Entel Tower is 127.40 m high from its base and is located at the intersection of the Alameda del Libertador Bernardo O'Higgins and Amunátegui, next to the La Moneda station of the Santiago Metro as this is a strategic place due to the proximity of the sites where connections to the urban telephone network are made.
