Neptuno is a metro station on the Line 1 of the Santiago Metro, in Santiago, Chile. It is located close to the main maintenance facility for the Metro of Santiago. It has a moderate-low flow of passengers, located in a residential place with no big attractions. The station was opened on 15 September 1975 as part of the inaugural section of the line between San Pablo and La Moneda.[2]

Etymology
The station name comes from the Neptuno Avenue, serving this station. In the times when the Santiago Metro used iconography, this station was represented with a trident and two fishes, representing the sea Roman God, Neptune.
