Destinos Coloniales en Ecuador
Los conquistadores españoles llegaron por primera vez a Ecuador en el año 1534, y permanecieron allí como una presencia poderosa hasta el siglo XIX. Los visitantes de ecuador pueden esperar ver algunos de los ejemplos mejor preservados en el mundo de diseño colonial.
Northern Sierra
Quito has a colonial center, known locally as Old Town. Here, cobblestones and colonial-era buildings make it easy to imagine what the city was like under Spanish rule. Take guided tours of this part of the city for a fascinating look at Ecuador’s history.
Climb the steps to the towers of La Basílica del Voto Nacional and La Compañía — these offer incredible views of the city. Another major landmark is the Palacio del Gobierno, which towers over the Plaza de la Independencia. Plaza de San Francisco is another impressive historic location, and was built on top of Incan ruins. This part of Quito is also where you'll find some of the city’s best museums.
Southern Sierra
Cuenca is Ecuador’s most beautiful colonial city, resplendent with stunning Renaissance architecture. Dramatic churches tower over the charming city squares. Many of these buildings were built by the Spanish in the 16th century.
Make sure to take a guided tour of the city that includes a stop at the Old Cathedral, which is the oldest building in the city. Jump forward to the 17th century at the El Carmen de la Asunción Church, which is nearby the Plaza de la Flores, a busy city square where flower peddlers come to sell fresh blooms.
