Do you have a minute?

'Cause we have hours of fun learning in store...in Ecuador, a small country located right on the Middle of the World.

The why? is simple, direct. It's as easy as A, B, C & C. Now what does that mean?

(the following sections will contain galleries and more detailed information)

A. ARTS

A collage of precolumbian, colonial, republican-era and contemporary art. You'll be a part of a real workshop straight out of colonial times, just like the old masters!

B. BIO-DIVERSITY

Let's not bore you with raw figures, but let us instead describe Ecuador's incredible biodiversity as exuberant, prolific and abundant. See the highlands, lowlands, sea and sky as thousands of colors come alive in a Van Gogh-style diorama. Come and embrace God's work.

C. CRAFTS

Tender, soft, delicate hands mold all that nature has given us. Artisans of the earth. They have nurtured wool, cotton, fine woods, palm, ivory nut, rich clay, gold, silver and platinum.... breathing life into them.

&

C. CULTURE

 There's a rainbow of people: native, mestizo, European, mulatto - no one is alone, and the blood of Ecuador is filled with millenary traditions. A history of pre-Inca and Inca civilizations, colonial splendor, the ushering-in of independence and democracy, a challenging present and a bright future full of hope.... this is our true identity.

I told you, it's as easy as A,B,C and C. Now, you got another second? Let me tell you what you're all about and how to experience the sublime.
