Very close to the Cotopaxi Volcano is a turquoise-blue lagoon, this color is due to the high concentration of minerals in its waters, this lagoon is located inside the crater of the "Quilotoa Volcano" hence its name "Laguna del Quilotoa", Inside the lagoon there are springs, which from the shore can be perceived as bubbling trails that rise to the surface, this volcano is 3800 meters above sea level, here you can observe the daily life of the Indians and their typical animals.

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).
