One of the South Pacific's most beautiful and least-known natural phenomena is the blooming of the Guayacanes. Every year for only a few short days, these guayacan trees are illuminated with a brilliant yellow hue, which stands in stark contrast to the surrounding red desert soil. This event has been drawing domestic visitors from cities like Quito and Guayaquil to its off-the-beaten-path location for over a decade, offering photographers and nature lovers alike a tranquil and vibrant environment to explore. If you’re lucky enough to plan a journey to Ecuador or Peru during the right time of year, there’s no better way to celebrate the arrival of the region’s wet season than with an unforgettable journey to Ecuador’s hidden flowering paradise!
