Discover the treasures of Quito
Vibrant squares, winding streets and ancient architecture: the breathtakingly beautiful centre of Quito is sometimes called the treasure chamber of South America. Visit the wonderful monasteries of San Francisco and Santo Domingo and the Jesuit College of La Compañía. Their fascinating interiors offer a mix of Spanish, Italian, Moorish, Flemish and indigenous art. If it gets too warm, cool off with ceviche, a delicious cold fish soup. Quito is the ideal destination for a city trip and the perfect starting point for a longer holiday in Ecuador. Expect to be surprised:

Enjoy the many views of the city
To enjoy the ultimate view of the Andes, visit El Panecillo, a hill of volcanic origin in the middle of the city. Or drive along the slopes of the Pichincha volcano and take the cable car up to a height of 4,000 metres. In the district of La Mariscal, you can admire the ancient crafts which are so ubiquitous in Quito. You’ll find gorgeous carpets made of llama wool, all kinds of jewellery and ethnic art – take home a nice souvenir!
