As the capital of Ecuador, Quito's past extends for centuries beyond its founding in 1534 to its status as a kingdom of the Incan Empire. Known by nicknames such as the Light of America, the City of the Heavens, and God's Face, Quito attained UNESCO World Heritage status in 1978 in recognition of the superb Spanish Colonial buildings in its ancient heart.
Most of the attractions in Quito are centered around the Old Town, where nearly 500 years of history are played out in the ancient buildings and winding streets. There are excellent Quito tours, which provide sights of the Old Town, but visitors will find the sheer number of must-see places requires them to allow more than one day to properly enjoy them all. Top highlights include the Iglesia de la Compañia de Jesus, one of the most beautiful churches in the Americas. And one of the most popular spots in the city for tourists is the hill where La Vírgen del Panecillo is located. This famous statue depicts the winged Virgin and provides a stunning focal point above the city.
Another local tourist favorite is the Museo de la Ciudad, or City Museum. With interactive displays detailing Quito's history, it's popular with children and adults alike. Quito also offers visitors a veritable shoppers' paradise of well-made goods crafted by artisans and sold right from their workshops on the street. There are also several malls dotted around the city giving visitors the opportunity to purchase familiar brands at reasonable prices.
