Travelogues with Jane Mahler: Ecuador

Ecuador is a country straddling the equator on South America’s west coast. Quito, the capital, is known for its largely intact Spanish colonial center with ornate 16th- and 17th-century palaces and religious sites. The city of Otavalo has one of the largest indigenous markets in South America, where travelers can find beautifully woven clothes, tapestries, leatherwork, intricately carved wood, and gorgeous jewelry. Join us as we tour these beautiful cities and then travel the majestic mountains of the Avenue of Volcanoes on the famous Pan-American Highway.
