Blanqueado is an underground metro station on the Line 5 of the Santiago Metro, in Santiago, Chile. The station was opened on 12 January 2010 as part of the extension of the line from Quinta Normal to Pudahuel.[1]

The tunnel containing the platforms, which are 135 metres (443 ft) long,[2] is connected by a concourse tunnel to a large shaft, which includes the ticket hall, as well as the stairways and elevator that lead to the only exit. The tracks rest at a depth of 18.6 m (61 ft).[2]
