It was either this or the backbend, and the backbend didn’t turn out well in a dress 🤸‍♀️😝 A little travel tip for visiting La Mitad Del Mundo (“the middle of the world”) just outside of Quito: head to the back of the massive monument and avoid the crowds trying to snag a photo in the front. Same view, fewer people!

To walk down the hills of Guápulo, we took the stairs below El Mirador de Guápulo through a little park (with lots of street art), leading us right onto Camino de Orellana - the street you want to be on to experience all Guápulo has to offer! .

These narrow winding roads offer some incredible views 🌋 (both up & down), art galleries 🎨, fresh ceviche on the weekends 🦐, and sore buns 🍑(if you choose to walk back up)!

#guapulo #guápulo #guapulo #visitquito #quitoturismo #ecuadortravel #travelecuador #discoverecuador #ecuadortravel_ig #ecuadorturistico #visitecuador Welcome to the middle of the world! Or should we say, BOTH “middle of the worlds.” Let’s discuss: A 30 minute drive north of Quito, you’ll find La Mitad Del Mundo turístico - the site that maybe you’ve seen in photos…the one that is promoted as the place to go to stand on the equator…the one you see in this first picture here (with us on top of a monument). But is that yellow line (the one right above D’s head) REALLY the equator? Ehhh, not exactly. To discover a more accurate (and less touristy) “middle of the world” drive about an hour east (or just SWIPE LEFT) to the Quitsato Sundial in Cayambe. Both are cool. Both are cash only ($5 and $2 respectively). Our advice: if you’re into math, science, astronomy or some really amazing fresh cheese wrapped in a leaf, cruise out to Cayambe and check out the real deal for yourself. The queso alone is worth the drive 🧀
