Why you should visit it

In a clear morning, you can see the historical district in all its splendor and in front of you some of the most outstanding volcanoes such as Antisana, Cotopaxi and Ilinizas. From this viewpoint you can understand the real dimension of the dramatic geography of Quito.

Special tip

Get down the stairs and go to the bridge you have there. If you don't have vertigo, you will see a huge ravine!
