The Middle of the World

The Middle of the World City (Ciudad Mitad del Mundo in Spanish) is probably the most famous Ecuador’s tourist attraction, right after or at the same level as Galapagos Island. This prefecture-owned land is located at San Antonio parish of the canton of Quito, 26 km north of the centre of Quito. (Note: it is not actually a city, it is a museum park). It comprises the Monument to the Equator (Monumento del Ecuador), the Ethnographic Museum Middle of the Earth (Museo Etnográfico Mitad del Mundo), a planetarium, a miniature model of Quito, handcraft stores, cafes and restaurants serving local food (helados de paila, humitas, quimbolitos) and a colonial small town. Additionally, just 240 metres apart there is a local private museum knows as Itiñan Solar Museum, which claims to have a more accurate Equatorial line, as we explain below. Most people enjoy Itiñan more; however, my suggestion is to visit both.

The City Hal of the World is most visited place in the City, where you can try put an egg on the needle. Before you enter to the city of half of the world you should visit the old museum of sun, where you can find watch of sun and some other interesting stuff

0 point North and South. Have you ever been in 2 parts of the world at once? Put on foot on the north and the other on the south of the ecuator line. Shopping and sight seeing.
