Northern Quito - the "New Town"

The area north of La Mariscal and before the drop-off into the valleys is generally referred to as el Norte de Quito. Here you will find two of Quito's most beautiful parks, Parque Carolina and Parque Metropolitana, as well as some of the nicest restaurants, hotels, malls, office buildings and neighborhoods. In contrast with the Centro Histórico, the Norte is very modern and developed, with a strong North American influence.



Other neighborhoods in Quito: Mitad del Mundo, Checa, La Mariscal, La Floresta, Pululahua Volcanic Crater, Near Quito, Guápulo, Calderón, Plaza Foch and Cumbayá.
