10 Reasons to Choose Quito

Ecuador's capital, Quito, is well worth a visit. Here are 10 reasons why you should visit the bustling metropolis at almost 3,000 meters above sea level. Are you worried about your stay in Quito? Worry no more! You can find many of the Best hotels in the City Center to make your journey more comfortable.

1. Quito – the middle of the world

With its location at 2,850 meters, Quito is not only the closest to the sun but also the only place in the world where you can stand with one foot in the northern hemisphere & the other in the southern hemisphere. If you balance on the equatorial line, you can feel the energy emanating from the middle of the world. Thanks to this exceptional location, Quito has outstanding natural and climatic diversity.

2. Quito's Old Town

The historic city center is considered the largest and best preserved in the Americas and is the reason why Quito has been declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Among the cultural jewels in the old town are for example, the baroque church Compañía de Jesús, the Plaza Grande, the church of San Francisco, or the street La Ronda with its workshops of long-forgotten crafts. Quito's old town is a living museum.

3. Quito's Kitchen

The culinary delights of the Andean metropolis are part of every travel program. Quito's gastronomy is given a very special touch by mixing traditional dishes with Andean and Spanish influences. The potato soup Locro de papas, Seco de chivo, fritada, empanadas, or the boiled corn rolls Envueltos, served with a hearty sauce from aji and tropical fruits for dessert – this is just an excerpt from a traditional menu in Quito.

4. Quito's craftsmanship

In colonial times, Quito was considered a business center, and the city has retained this reputation to this day. In the historic city center, we find workshops of professions that we thought were long extinct, including traditional hairdressers, milliners, candle makers, basket weavers, tailors, and herbalists. Some of the most crucial workshops, such as those of Oswaldo Viteri, Oswaldo Guayasamín, Luigi Stonornaiolo, or Eduardo Kingman, are open to visitors.

5. Quito's Culture

Every corner of the city tells stories from times gone by, a diverse cultural offer with exhibitions, theatre, music, or film screenings brings them back to life. Among the most important museums in Quito are the Casa de El Alabado with its extraordinary pre-Columbian collection, the Museum de Cera, the Sucre Theater, the Museum of Contemporary Art, and the House of Music. The museums in the area, such as the museums of Tulipe, Rumipamba, or La Florida, offer an insight into past cultures. You can find many Best Hotels in Quito Old Town.

6. Quito's Nightlife

Leisure activities for all tastes and budgets. The highest density of restaurants, cafes, bars, and discos can be found in the neighborhoods of La Mariscal, La Floresta, Guápulo, and La Carolina. Music, gastronomy, and parties with a large portion of Ecuadorian joie de vivre awaken the desire to turn night into day

7. Quito's Railway

The Chimbacalle district is the starting point of the "most difficult train ride in the world", which has now become a famous tourist attraction. Aboard the train, passengers can watch the landscapes pass by from the Andes to the coast and experience Ecuador from a new angle.

8. Quito's Shopper's Paradise

Souvenirs are part of every trip. In Quito, shoppers can expect a huge selection of shopping opportunities. The Quicentro shopping mall is home to international fashion labels, while the La Floresta and La Mariscal districts are known for their galleries. Shops such as El Quinde in the old town specialize in typical handicrafts, and art lovers will find what they are looking for in El Ejido.

Just an hour from Quito, you will find yourself in the middle of unspoiled nature. Typical haciendas offer refuge from the harsh Andean climate, and guests can pass the time with horseback riding, spa visits, or hikes. To the northeast, the cloud forest awaits with its mystical beauty. With over 500 species of birds, including the national hummingbird, this region makes ornithologists' hearts beat faster.
