IMAGES OF ECUADOR
Perhaps more than any other country, Ecuador encompasses South America. Jungle, colonial towns and volcanic valleys blend with stunning countryside and an abundance of wildlife to create a destination that is both enlightening and magical. The stately capital Quito wears its UNESCO World Heritage status with pride, a journey south through the ‘Avenue of the Volcanoes’ is one steeped in beauty, while small market towns and Spanish colonialism combine to create a wonderful confection of tradition, natural beauty and captivating atmospheres.
