The third of the best-known clubs in Santiago is the Artex, also near Parque Cespedes. It features a balcony overlooking the courtyard dance floor. There's always a live band. This place seemed to sport more Jineteras than others, though.

Live music on cobblestones

We didn't dance much as Artex was a bit of a disappointment after the Casa de las Tradiciones
