- Basilica del Voto Nacional - The Quito city tour is ideal for experiencing captivating panoramas, churches, domes, and roofs with significant historical importance. Discover and appreciate colonial art, architecture, culture, legends, and traditions. Quito, Ecuador’s capital, was established in the 16th century on the remnants of an Inca city and is situated at an altitude of 9,350 feet. Despite the 1917 earthquake, the city boasts the best-preserved and least altered historic center in Latin America. The architecture and opulent interiors exemplify the Quito School of sculpture, a blend of Spanish, Italian, Moorish, Flemish, and indigenous art. After four remarkable hours exploring the Old Town, it becomes clear why Quito was the first city to be designated a UNESCO Cultural Heritage site.
The first stop is the Basilica church, showcasing a true example of neo-Gothic architectural style.
- Plaza de la Independencia (Plaza Grande) - The city’s main square, Plaza Grande, is encircled by the country’s key buildings: the Cathedral, the Presidential Palace, the Archbishop’s Palace, and City Hall.
- Palacio Arzobispal - The Archbishop’s Palace is a grand building located in the Historic Center of Quito DM.
- Fundacion Iglesia de la Compania - Visit the finest example of colonial art in the city: a Jesuit temple with a facade adorned with intricate carvings.
- Iglesia y Convento de San Francisco - The Franciscan Order was the first to be established in Quito. They promptly began constructing a monastery, which became a hub for education and the arts, featuring its own painting and sculpture schools (the Church of San Francisco is included in the tour).
- El Panecillo - Enjoy a breathtaking view of the entire city from the Panecillo observation deck, along with the statue of the Winged Virgin Mary, the city’s patroness.
