A short drive from Quito ,UNESCO World Heritage site and you arrive at the citadel of the middle of the world.Here there is a monument marking latitude 0, the Equator, from which the country takes its name.

There is also a Ethnographic museum here which educates visitors on the unique culture of the indigenous population. Within Latin America Ecuador is one of the countries that maintains a high population of traditionally living indigenous communities and so this museum gives an insight into their culture.
