A Place to Visit
Hi Mario,
Baños de Agua Santa is on of the most popular destinations in Ecuador. It’s located in Tungurahua
province. Visitors come from all over the world. The reason for this is that Baños has one of the
most beautiful settings you can ever find. It is surrounded by lush forested mountains, beautiful
rivers, water falls, and as its name suggests, hot springs. The area has a very nice subtropical
climate and produces citrus, fruits, peaches, grapes, and sugar cane. In relation to activities, you
can have good trekking possibilities in the area, including one to the crater of the volcano, Altar. If
you need trekking or climbing information, ask at the cafes at the bus station. The maps are very
cheap. Apart from relaxing, walking is the most popular activity in Baños. The Agoyán Falls are,
perhaps, the nearest major attraction. There are buses to and from the centre of town. Love,
Mary
