His masterpiece was the construction of the Chapel of the Mankind, an iconic building that he never could see finished. In its interior there are impressive murals about the history of Latin America and the World. You also can visit his last house and workshop.
The view of Quito is stunning, so try to go in a clear morning. Do not forget to see his video painting a portrait of Spanish guitarist Paco de Lucia.
