Middle of the World

Middle of the World in Quito marks Earth’s equator with monuments and geodesic lines. Photograph the iconic “mitad del mundo” structures, the equatorial marker and sundial-style features, plus wide views of the Andean plateau. Cool, variable weather and frequent cloud cover make moody skies common; arrive early for softer light and fewer crowds. Public site—entry fees are generally modest; allow 1–2 hours. Get there by taxi/Uber; parking is available on-site.
