Tigua and its environs

by acemj - last update: Apr 27, 2008

Tigua is a nice stop along the road that leads through Ecuador's beautiful Quilotoa Loop between Pujili and Zumbahua. The landscape here has a subtle beauty that is worth exploring slowly and leisurely. There were two brothers from Montreal staying at the same place that we stayed who were biking around Ecuador and I imagined that their pace was perfect for truly taking it in properly. However, even if you don't have the experience or stamina for such a physical challenge, I'd recommend stopping in Tigua and perhaps even staying at the same place that I did. You'll find it a stop worth savoring.
The night we were here we lucked out since the locals were partying well into the night. They were celebrating the funding of a local school and they did it complete with music, plenty of alcohol and even some fun and games with some bulls.

 It was especially nice that you happened on the town as they were having a celebration.
