Parque Bustamante is an underground metro station on the Line 5 of the Santiago Metro, in Santiago, Chile. It is located beneath Parque Bustamante, which gives the name to the station. The station was opened on 5 April 1997 as part of the inaugural section of the line, from Baquedano to Bellavista de La Florida.[2]

Originally the platform side walls featured mosaics that were vaguely designed to resemble trees. That decoration was disguised by the mural-like artwork named Vida y Trabajo, which was completed in 2008.[3] Another artwork installed here is named El Sitio de las Cosas by Pablo Rivera, which is made of polyester resin coated with an applied copper patina.[3]
