Best places: Tourist attractions in Ecuador

👍👍 Such a beautiful temple, I have a love for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and this temple in particular is amazing. I love the feeling of peace I can feel when I go to the temple.

Shoreline of dunes, salt flats & mangroves, home to species including iguanas & flamingos.

👍👍 The Pailon del Diablo waterfall can be reached with a walk (30 minutes long) on a mountain path similar to those you can find in the European Alps. However, the path was full of hawkers selling drinks, snacks, objects and other handicrafts . Moreover, we cannot even complain about this situation, gi...

Rocky point at the western tip of Ecuador, with strong currents said to resemble swirling chocolate.

👍👍 Absolutely amazing the amount of water you see pouring down, and you can get so close! There are two entrances, one is a shorter route that goes to a higher viewpoint, and the longer hike takes you lower down to the waterfall. The shorter route is quick but steep and across two suspension bridges.

👍👍 A typical ‘been there, done it ✔️’ picture you have to take while visiting Quito. But once you’re up the mountain, wow! What an amazing view and a stunning scenery.

Museum dedicated to sculptor & painter Oswaldo Guayasamín in the artist's former hillside home.

👍👍 Tres Cruces viewpoint located at 4200 meters above sea level from there you can see the Andes Mountains and about 10 lagoons, although the cold is intense, the experience with nature is wonderful

Viewpoint above a rocky bay & snorkeling spot, with frigatebirds nesting in surrounding trees.

👍👍 Great to take a walk and watch the ocean and how it crash with the rocks. Then the view is great you are super high and you can see animal very closely. Down the lighthouse there is a beach who protects turtle eggs. Great place to go with your family and relax with a long walk
