Bellavista de La Florida is an underground metro station on the Line 5 of the Santiago Metro, in Santiago, Chile. The station was opened on 5 April 1997 as the southern terminus of the original extension of the line from Baquedano. It served as the southern terminus of the Line 5 until Vicente Valdés metro station was opened on November 30, 2005.[1] Despite their proximity, there is no direct connection between Bellavista and Vicuña Mackenna metro station.

Like Rondizzoni metro station, Bellavista de La Florida was flooded in June 2000.[2]

Nearby landmarks include Mall Plaza Vespucio and the town hall of La Florida, the district where the station is located.
