The Incredible Architectural City of Cuenca

When I was a teenager I visited this amazing and beautiful city in Ecuador that I
personally could say is the most charming and colonial among all the cities in
Ecuador. Cuenca is beautiful with its cobblestone streets, ancient cathedrals,
colonial parks and the rivers that run through it. Cuenca has become a favorite
destination for retired foreigners who have settled in this city for the rest of their
lives. With a low cost of living, and pleasant despite its relatively cold weather, this
small Andean city currently attracts a large number of immigrants, because it has
beautiful landscapes to tour with the family and generate divine memories, I am
sure that if you visit this city you will fall in love and you will not want to leave. I had
never traveled before my godfather invited me there and after this experience, I
could recommend it to any child, teenager or even adult who wants to spend their
vacations there.

Nowadays in which we live our memories beyond being that good memories are
stored in social networks, even though I am not a big fan of uploading pictures of
me, today I use them more, because of this I thought a lot about the pictures I took
when I visited the city but especially the view I got from the place where I stayed.

This great place is very traditional, but it also stands out for its cultural tradition,
Cuenca has produced more notable writers, poets, artists and philosophers than
any other city in Ecuador. Cuenca's culture as well as its history is represented in the
many museums that exist in the city. Those looking for cultural options in Cuenca
can choose from museums, churches and colonial plazas during the day.

At night, bars and restaurants abound with excellent national and international
culinary options at very affordable prices, but the music tends to turn down early, in
keeping with the city's conservative traditions.

Many of Cuenca's hotels were adapted colonial houses and mansions. This fact
alone makes them attractive because of their interesting colonial architecture. Many
of them have restaurants where the visitor is immersed in the colonial history of
Cuenca.
Finally, I would definitely upload a picture of those incredible vacations and so you
can know a little more about the places I visited and if you are interested you can
visit it, taking as a souvenir a little bit of our culture to remember.

good evening everyone this video is about a family vacation.

this vacation i went to a beach called ayangue in the commune of san pablo. the destination
was chosen by my sister-in-law and my brother planned every detail of this trip.

i had not really been to this place before, i had heard about it but i had never visited it.

my brother, my sister-in-law, my nephews and nieces went on this vacation and my sister-in-
law's sister, her husband and children were waiting for us there, we were a big family.

we went on this trip in my brother's car while he was driving, I was the co-driver, making
conversation and looking for faster routes, This trip took us about 4 hours to get to the place
where we were going to stay because we made several stops to eat a little and get out of the
car to stretch our legs.

We stayed in a house near the place where they do paragliding, it was really fun to see how
they did this sport but it was also relaxing to sit and listen and watch the sea. I really think it is
a good place for a vacation since I had not been to the beach before, it was the first time I
went and it felt so good.

the time we spent there was good i didn't want to go back because i felt at peace and calm
with myself seeing the immensity of the sea. i think my little nephews enjoyed the vacation
more making sand castles. i haven't been back to that place it's a nice place but the
responsibilities i have don't let me go back.
