QUITO, Cultural Heritage of Humanity

Quito, the capital of Ecuador, is a city that embraces the sky from the heights of the Andes. Located at 2,850 meters above sea level, it is one of the highest capitals in the world and a meeting point between tradition and modernity. Its historic center, declared a Cultural Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO, preserves colonial churches, centuries-old convents, and vibrant public squares. But Quito is not only about the past: it is also contemporary art, innovation, creative cafés, and neighborhoods full of soul.

The city is surrounded by majestic volcanoes and natural landscapes that invite exploration, such as the cable car that ascends to Rucu Pichincha or the trails of the Metropolitan Park. From here, you can also visit the famous Middle of the World, where the Northern and Southern Hemispheres meet.

Quito is living culture, diversity, and warm, welcoming people. Its gastronomy reflects this blend: hornado, locro de papa, empanadas, and flavors that tell stories. Every corner has something to say, and every visit leaves a unique experience.

Quito is not just visited — it is lived.
