2Laguna Quilotoa
In the countryside of Latacunga city, in the Cotopaxi province. We can find the crystal green lagoon of Quilotoa with its ring-shaped. Separating from the Panamericana Highway, the road is curving at the beginning to get to the Paramo Andino. On one side to the other the beautiful patchworks of potatoes, onions, barley, and other crops are appearing; some sheep, llamas, and alcapas peacefully sooner come. Along the way to the lagoon, some villages, and small towns, of Kichua people are offering ancient art paintings from Julio Toaquiza and his generation; in Tigua, wooden masks too. In Zumbahua a nice market will occur every Saturday, where the vendors are coming from the mountains to the main plaza. Guinea pigs, groceries, local products, and fruits from the coastal region are easy to find.

3Banos
Baños enjoys a subtropical and warm climate, located in a small plateau of the Ecuadorian Andes. Its altitude 1820 meters above sea level (5.971 ft.), surrounded by green mountains and waterfalls. The thermal baths give the name to the town. Baños offers great opportunities for outdoor activities such as cycling, canyoning, zip-lining, rafting, hiking, bungee jumping, and horse-riding, that`s why is one of the most visited destinations in Ecuador. Although the unpredictable condition of the Mama Tungurahua volcano towering above the town, the volcano's unpredictability is something of a draw in itself, with tourists flocking to high vantage points on cloudless nights to watch it spit lava and rocks into the sky like fireworks.
