Barrio Suecia (Spanish for "Swedish neighborhood") is a section of Santiago, Chile, centered around Calle Suecia ("Suecia Street"), in the upscale Providencia municipality, which includes many pubs, discos and restaurants. Frequently the area is simply referred to as "Calle Suecia."
A commonly used pun is formed by changing the word Suecia to sucia, Spanish for "dirty", because the area is notorious for drunkenness and debauched nightlife. As it would be used in a sentence by expatriates: "Let's go to Calle Sucia tonight".
