V!VA User‘s Description
Sigsig is a small agricultural town one and a half hours southeast of Cuenca that sits in a valley surrounded by steep mountains. It is best known for being the source of many of the Panama hats sold within and outside of Ecuador. A quick walk around town will give a glimpse of the many stages of toquilla hat production.
Arriving from Cuenca, you will be let off in the first of two of the town's parks. This park is filled with soccer fields and basketball courts, and it is dominated by two enormous and eerie welded statues of angels on stilts. To get a glimpse of the scenery and to orient yourself, walk up the flight of stairs toward the basketball court on the hill, where you will be able to take advantage of the height and enjoy the vistas.
