Quito Essentials

Quito's UNESCO-listed historic center features the Neo-Gothic Basilica of the National Vow and the 16th-century Church of San Francisco. At Independence Square, the Carondelet Palace serves as the seat of Ecuador's government. The city's high-altitude landscape is visible from the TelefériQo gondola and El Panecillo, a volcanic hill topped by a winged Virgin statue. Cultural highlights include the Chapel of Man, dedicated to artist Oswaldo Guayasamín, and the traditional artisan stalls of the Mariscal Craft Market. The nearby Mitad del Mundo marks the equatorial line.
