Ciudad Mitad del Mundo is a tract of land owned by the prefecture of the province of Pichincha, Ecuador. An iconic monument stands 30-meters high and is topped with a 5-tonne globe in commemoration of the eighteenth century Franco-Spanish Geodesic Mission, making it an appealing destination for curious tourists. It also includes other attractions, such as a planetarium, mini model of Quito, restaurants, local handcraft stores, and cultural events. The monument and the museum contain interesting displays of Ecuadorian culture and folklore. Touring Mitad del Mundo is recommended to anyone interested in learning more about the history and culture of Ecuador, through meaningful interactions with locals and exciting activities provided.
