Ecuador is one of the most diverse countries in the world though it’s comparably tiny. Beside the Galapagos Islands (which is the #1 tourist destination in Ecuador) the country has a lot more to offer, therefore I focussed on “La Sierra” in this video which is a paradise for landscape lovers and outdoor adventurers.

Another reason to visit the Andean region is that you have the chance to dive into the local culture and get a real feeling of Ecuador. The places to see in Ecuador I focussed on in this short video are the result of my own travels along the center from north to south and are easily doable in 2 weeks time.

Things to do in Ecuador covered in this video:
01) 00:36 – Otavalo market in Otavalo
02) 01:00 – Hike the Cuicocha lake
03) 01:25 – Middle of the World, Mitad del Mundo & Quitsato in Cayambe
04) 01:48 – Quito, capital & UNESCO World Heritage
05) 02:08 – Termas de Papallacta (hot springs)
06) 02:24 – Cayambe Coca National Park
07) 02:45 – Quilotoa & Shalala viewpoint
08) 03:13 – Tren Crucero & Nariz del Diablo (Devil’s nose)
09) 03:47 – Inka ruins in Ingapirca
10) 04:04 – Cuenca & it’s beautiful old town

What are your best things to do in Ecuador?
I’m looking forward to more tips from other travelers and Ecuador experts. Have you been and know of some cool places? Let us know in the comments below!

Number 10 – Parc Guell. Barcelona has many great landmarks designed by the world renowned architect, Antoni Gaudi. One of them is the unique Parc Guell.

Number 9 – Plaza de Espana. It is a grand, massive square in the middle of Barcelona. The square was built back in 1920 for the international exhibition.

Number 8 – La Boqueria, a colorful market where you will find both locals and visitors. Besides the freshness of produce, presentation is extremely eye catching.

Number 7 – Casa Batllo. This Antoni Gaudi designed building has the appearance of being made from skulls and bones. It’s roof is just as fascinating.

Number 6 – Gothic Quarter. It the center of Barcelona’s Old City. Amidst the buildings from medieval times, you will feel transported back in time.

Number 5 – Barcelona Cathedral, a beautiful cathedral located in the city’s Gothic Quarter. It’s impressive gothic architecture dates back to the 14th century.

Number 4 – Beaches. Many people are not aware that Barcelona has an excellent beach scene. Locals love to relax by one of the many great beaches in the city.

Number 3 – La Rambla, probably the most famous area of Barcelona and very popular amongst tourists. Don’t forget to appreciate the history while watching street performers.

Number 2 – Casa Mila, also known as La Pedrera, it was architected by the great Antoni Gaudi. The unusual rooftop can be seen on many postcards from Barcelona.

And Number 1 – La Sagrada Familia. This was the largest project by Antoni Gaudi. The construction of this world famous church began in 1882 and is still ongoing.
