San Francisco Plaza in Quito
The San Francisco Plaza is one of my favorite touristy spots in the Historic Downtown area of Quito. It’s a good place for people watching and you have great views/photo opportunities from every angle: the statue of Virgin on the top the Panecillo hill, the green and gold domes or cupolas of La CompañÃa church, the pigeons and street vendors, the stairs and the entrance to church.
There’s a conveniently located restaurant (Tianguez) right underneath the church/monastery area – and it’s a great place to have an Ecuadorian Pilsener or Club beer (or a jugo de mora) while you enjoy the view.
