Otavalo

I can’t stop going back haha. It’s my favorite!

Loved Otavalo. Awesome markets on the weekend, with low prices. Beautiful surroundings and good food. Try to be there for the weekend market.

The bus trip from Quito was insane however. He was taking the corners so fast, the tyres rubbed on the wheel arches. :)

been there for 2 weeks. Lovely place, great culture, nice people

Great visit.. If I had to live anywhere in Ecuador except Quiot this would be it. Yes the market is great but really the what stands out is the people. The culture found here is a overall wonderful experiance. I have friends that live and work here. the gave me a great tour of the place and a little outside of the city there is an amazing waterfall you have to crawl threw a rock opening to get to it. You have to ask a local about the “cascada” while you are there.

You don’t need to go on the special big market day, Saturday. I went on Thursday and there were plenty of stalls, the town square was full! The bus from Quito costs about 5 dollars return and takes a couple of hours each way. A nice route.
