I am moving from Quito to Baños de Agua Santa.
Along the way, you can see a volcano, and you pass right next to it. Not only that, but there is also a volcano right next to Baños, so you realize that Ecuador is a country with many mountains and a country with many volcanoes.



Here is the accommodation information:

Backpackers Balcones
Single room, shared bathroom, 2 nights for US$14 (approximately 1,700 yen).
That's about 850 yen per night.

It's a little outside the city center, but it's within walking distance, so it's not a problem.

Baños de Agua Santa has the Virgen hot springs (Termas de la Virgen), so of course, I went to take a bath.
There seems to be another one, but I didn't go there.

I strolled around the area of Baños.
It seems they call it a canopy, and there are several wires hanging along the river. It looks like individuals have set them up without permission. If individuals are doing it, the safety is questionable.

I went to see a waterfall called Pailon del Diablo (Devil's Cauldron), combining a walk around the area with a bit of hiking.

It's not that large in scale, but it's quite impressive when you get closer. I'm glad I came.BGM: Copyright(C)Music Palette
