The Ultimate Guide to Quito

It’s no exaggeration that Quito will leave you breathless, in more ways than one: at almost 10,000ft above sea level, it’s one of the highest capital cities in the world, and its colonial Historic Center is a designated UNESCO world heritage site. There’s also delicious food like ceviche and yucca bread pretty much everywhere, and an urban park so big that NYC’s Central Park looks like a sandbox by comparison. It’s time Ecuador was on your radar, so we put together the ultimate guide to discovering Quito. Sip on that aguardiente and take it all in.
