quito old town

石板路两旁是西班牙殖民时期的建筑，有些高大雄伟，有些深藏不露，静静地诉说着殖民时期的辉煌。夜晚我们从餐厅走出来（老街上有一家像剧院一样的餐馆环境味道都不错），远远听到有高亢嘹亮的歌声，走近发现是清冷的基多老街上为上帝歌唱的当地妇女，身着彩色长袍，头发梳成土著人的样子，歌唱完毕很快离开，只留下空气里的余音，很有南美风情。从教堂门口的小广场往山上看，可以看到立着的圣母像，是当地人的信仰。

我们做我们自己的事。逛街,进商店,咖啡馆和餐馆,任何时候都没有感觉不舒服。每一个角落都由旅游警察清理干净了,想起以前的故事我们发现现在没有任何问题。

基多古城很美丽。你想要的东西基本都在附近,而且各自之间的距离很近。这儿的历史遗迹的古建筑都保存的很好,让人很是惊奇。教堂很雄伟,周围的人也很亲切。然而,早晨8点到10点,交通一团乱,到处都是人。除了这一点之外,这儿是个很棒的古城,风景秀美,有着多年的殖民史和伟大梦想。

景色非常漂亮,但在盘山路上的时候很害怕,因为没有任何护栏,我感觉我们可能会摔下悬崖。这个城市开车很困难,而且对于行人或者是流浪狗来说也是比较走的。

强烈推荐,很适合看人群和拍照。我们在这里住了几天,一直都感觉很安全。一定要去看看总统府,进去参观一下。

如果你曾有机会去基多,不要错过历史古城之旅。更好的是,找个地方住在这个老城里面--它比新基多让人印象深刻的多。老城是个各种狭窄街道的大区域,熙熙攘攘的交通和人们。小商铺,老教堂,博物馆,公园比比皆是,是个能花几天逛的很棒的城市。你觉得很安全的,因为一个大的警力和人民都很友好。有些地方不要错过:大教堂(大教堂),耶稣教会旧金山广场和教堂广场。去看所有这些名胜和很多更多的一个好的方式就是跳上-跳下巴士。这是一个真正便宜价又很棒的方式来游览基多。总统府拉朗达

lots of churches and old building was very nice and most areas felt safe it was just one or two areas that probably best not to walk around especially at night, we had no problems taking photos at this beautiful city though. and at night it is very beautiful with the churches lit up.

I liked the facades that have been restored, the amazing churches packed with gold, and the squares. We stayed in two bijou hotels that were great: El Relicario del Carmen and the Casona de la Ronda. The only downside of Quito old town is the exhaust from the buses which is filthy.

Quaint old town but very small and nothing worth mentioning. Many churches to visit , but a difficult city to walk in due to the altitude and hilly terrain.

There are many churches, galleries , museums, restaurants in the old town that are interesting and worth a visit. We took the red bus tour on the day we arrived to orientate ourselves.

We just returned from our trip to Ecuador and it was fantastic. We traveled with Gate 1 Travel and the trip was not just a vacation but quite the experience!!!! We would never have gotten to do many of the things or went to the places we did if we were not on this tour!!!! It was just awesome!! We had a group of six family members and we all felt it was the best vacation yet!!!! Kudos to Gate 1 Travel. We will be booking a trip with you again!!! Mike and Nancy Aldinger

The best museums are within walking distance of each other. Our favourites were: Museo de la Ciudad and Casa del Alabado.

Our only regret regarding Old Town was that we did not arrange for our accommodation to be in the district! What an architectural treasure. It is not to be missed. We spend a lot of time in Independence Plaza interacting with the wonderful Ecuadoran people who were eager to interact with us. Friendly, gracious and willing to help at anytime.

While visiting the capital of Ecuador you must also visit he old town, architecture will wake your senses as well as the native people earning a living.

For a glimpse into the real Quito and the real Ecuador, a visit to this section of the city is absolutely necessary. While the main plazas and government buildings are absolutely beautiful and the churches over the top with their golden interiors and vibrant congregations, it is the strolls down the side streets that are most enlightening. Our guide took us off the beaten track, and I am so happy that he did. We saw the small shops, the street people, the indigenous peoples selling everything imaginable for just a few cents or dollars and the real people of Quito going about their daily business. Oh yes, we all heard about the pickpockets operating there, but with the same attention to belongings that one needs to use in any large US city, don't hesitate to stray onto the smaller streets of Old Town with your eyes and your mind open. You will be changed forever as a result.
