About Quito

Quito, capitale andine d'altitude de l'Équateur, a l'un des centres coloniaux les mieux préservés d'Amérique latine, cerné de volcans.

Le centre historique fut l'un des tout premiers sites inscrits au patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO, et ses églises, ses places et ses monastères sont spectaculaires. La Compañía de Jesús resplendit de feuilles d'or à l'intérieur, la basilique del Voto Nacional a des gargouilles en forme d'animaux équatoriens, et la Plaza Grande est entourée de la cathédrale et du palais présidentiel.

Top-ranked sights in Quito: Cotopaxi National Park, Basilica of the National Vow (La Basílica del Voto Nacional), Independence Plaza (Plaza de la Independencia).
