I suggest reading the VT Travelguide of Santiago. I'm sure you will find '1000 ideas' of what to do/see.

DO visit San Cristobel for views over Santiago - first level by steep funicular, top by tiny cable car. Then walk back from station through the artisan area - people selling jewellery off the pavement, loads of university students. Have a beer, or two, or a delicious custard apple juice at one of the pavement cafes.
DONT lose your grip on your camera in the main square by the cathedral - saw 3 people have theirs snatched in 2 days.
Do visit the cathedral.
DONT get upset by the dogs - they are everywhere and quite neglected, injured, maimed in motor accidents etc.
