  1. Have you been watching Poker Face? Its Quito and its got a large statue overlooking it, a bit like the angel of the north only not as crappy.

    MIscellaneous fact of the day - if you've ever seen the film Proof of Life with Russell Crowe, the panning shot at the end is Quito.


  2. It's definitely Quito. The 2 other major cities in Ecuador are Guayaquil and Cuenca.  Guayaquil is actually bigger than Quito but Quito is the capital.

  3. Quito.  They're rioting there at the moment.

  4. Quito (official name: San Francisco de Quito) is the capital city of Ecuador in northwestern South America. It is located in northern Ecuador (see NG MapMachine satellite map) in the Guayllabamba river basin on the eastern slopes of the Pichincha [1] ( 15,728 ft; 4,795 m), an active stratovolcano in the Andes mountains. The city's elevation is 9,300 ft (2,850 m) above sea level (measured at the Plaza de la Independencia), making Quito the second highest capital city in the world. The city's population according to the most recent census (2001) was 1,399,378. In 2005, however, the estimated population was 1,865,541 (canton). The area of Quito is approximately 112 square miles (290 km²).

    There is some confusion about Quito's position as the second highest (elevation) capital in the world, because La Paz, Bolivia, which is higher, is the governmental capital of Bolivia (where the Bolivian government functions). However, Sucre, which is lower, is the legal capital of Bolivia.

    Quito is located about 15 miles (25 km) south of the equator. A monument marking the equator is known locally as la mitad del mundo (the middle of the world).

    Due to its altitude and location, the climate in Quito is mild to cool, fairly constant all year round, with a high temperature typically around 67 degrees Fahrenheit (20°C) on any given day, and a low around 49 degrees Fahrenheit (10°C) at night. The city experiences only two seasons: summer (the dry season) and winter (the rainy season).

    Quito is the second most populous city in Ecuador after Guayaquil.
