One of the most visited tourist sites is La Mitad del Mundo. Translated : The middle of the world.
That is also the reason how Ecuador got its name, as it lays on the Equator.
There is a monument is placed on the Equator. This Mitad del Mundo is located in San Antonio, a small village 23 km North of Quito. |

unravelau Fri Mar 25, 2005 05:05 UTC I had heard of San Antonio but before reading your page, knew little about it. Thank you for the interesting tips and pics. I related to the comment about wanting to see a place but not being able to get there. They must not place much emphasis on tourism | deecat Fri Feb 6, 2004 16:07 UTC Enjoyable reading for San Antonio. You certainly are well traveled. Your style is interesting and easy to follow. I like the personal touches. Great photographs too. | cadzand Tue Jan 27, 2004 19:04 UTC So Mitad del Mundo isn't really Mitad del Mundo ? Great experience anyway. | matcrazy1 Sun Jan 25, 2004 09:51 UTC Haha, I never was in southern hemisphere yet but I hope to go there - maybe just at this place or... 8 km further north! |
