The Andes Region offers exciting and unforgettable colonial Haciendas which used to be private estates and now are open for those who wish to experience Ecuador's country lifestyle and history. Most of these Haciendas offer a plethora of diverse attractions such as horseback riding, biking tours and visits to the local markets, country villages and plantations nearby.Constructed in 1790, the Hacienda Pinsaquí was originally a colonial textile enterprise, employing over a thousand weavers and spinners. Today, this Ecuadorian Hacienda in Otavalo retains the character and authenticity of its earlier incarnation, making it a unique travel experience. This romantic hacienda offers all the necessary facilities and comfort for a pleasant and unforgettable stay.
The beautiful, colonial Hacienda of San Agustín de Callo, nestled at the foothills of the snow-capped Cotopaxi volcano (the highest active volcano in the world) was built on the site of an ancient Inca palace, one of the two most important archaeological Inca sites in Ecuador.
