Description

This guide offers an urban overview of three major Ecuadorian cities – Quito, Guayaquil and Cuenca – as well as a detailed description of their most representative architecture. A selection of 120 buildings has been compiled, dating from the earliest days of Spanish colonisation to the present day. Each project is accompanied by basic historical data, a formal description and images.

This book not only allows the reader to get to know the most outstanding buildings and public spaces in the country, but also to understand the symbolism and spirit that lies within them, shaping the urban memory, culture and identity of Ecuador.
