Why you should visit it

This street was built by the Incas and it was part of the Inca trail which connected Quito with Cusco. The houses have been restored recuperating the typical Andalussian style with white adobe walls and balconies that seem to be very close one from another. It is plenty of restaurants, cafés, art galleries and chocolate shops!

Special tip

Go to Chez-Tiff shop and live the best experience of Ecuadorian Chocolate and then drink a "canelazo"!
