Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Plaza de la Independencia is commonly called Plaza Grande in the Historic Center of Quito, the best-preserved, least altered historic center in Latin America. In Spanish, (El Centro Histórico de Quito) was constructed on what was once a 16th century Inca city at 2,850 meters above sea level in the Andes Mountains near the Equator.

The Colonial Center of Quito is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that stretches over 790 acres and contains 130 monumental buildings, 5,000 smaller properties in addition to the numerous 500 year old Churches and Convents.

Facing the Plaza de la Independencia is Carondelet Palace, the Presidential Palace & the seat of government of the Republic of Ecuador.
