ASESOR: LCDO. ORLANDO JOSÉ RODRIGUEZ. TERCERO BGU - PARALELO B 2017 – 2018 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. First I want to thank God and Mother Dolorosa for giving me the family they have given me, because thanks to them I study in the school to which I belong and for them I have had the academic and disciplinary training that I get today. To my family who supported me from the beginning to the end of this extensive work that took us a long time to complete, they helped me with many important ideas to carry out this mission. If it had not been for the quality of teachers that I have this work would not have been possible, every hour class with each indication, each tutorial, everything served us to complete this work in a good way. ABSTRACT My goal with this monograph is to make people aware of the importance of tourism and what it generates as an industry every year, to promote the campaign created by the government "all you need is Ecuador " a bit more and to highlight lesser known touristic places in Ecuador that probably many foreigners are not aware of. The more we help to promote the tourism, the better it is going to be for the country in many aspects such as the economy. I want to help my country to be recognized as an attractive touristic destination throughout the world. At the same time to increase awareness and support for the above mentioned places since they can manage to be very valued.

Bibliography ………………………………………………………………………………… 25 INTRODUCTION Ecuador is a diverse country with great wealth in its four regions. Ecuador has become a reference for tourism worldwide thanks to its innumerable landscapes and tourist destinations, and thanks to the support of the current country president and the tourism ministry in recent years tourism has been growing remarkably and it is known worldwide with its advertisement "ALL YOU NEED is Ecuador" The Ministry of Tourism leads and regulate the tourist activity in Ecuador; in order to achieve a sustainable, conscientious and competitive development in this sector, exercising its roles of regulation, planning, management, promotion, diffusion and control.

Thanks to these helpful advertising campaigns, the country could manage to increase its economy. But that really is nothing, there is still much to improve and to innovate in order to make the most of our large amount of natural resources. The country has recovered the railway lines that existed a long time ago; a big investment had to be made in order to fulfill that project. CHAPTER I MAIN TOURIST SITES OF ECUADOR. 1.1 Definition. 1.1.1 Natural and cultural wealth. Ecuador is a Latin-American country with rich cultural and historical attractions for tourists all around the world. The country has natural wonders with landscapes, tropical rainforests, volcanoes, beaches, islands etc. You can explore churches, on the nation’s capital Quito, with a rich cultural historic past or you can go rafting down the great Amazon River or you can walk through the Earth’s Equator, without a doubt all these are great sources of travel memories. 1.2 Tourist Attractions. 1.2.1 Iglesia de la compañía de Jesús. Located in downtown Quito the Church is perhaps the best known among the capital cathedrals. Built in the early 1600s, the churches designed in this epoch are considered a main example of Baroque architecture in the new world, the extensive use of gold throughout the central nave of the church is breathtaking. (Ministerio de Turismo del Ecuador, 2014) 1.2.2 Volcán Cotopaxi. It is the second highest volcano, reaching a height of 5.897 meters. The volcano has one of the few equatorial glaciers in the world, which starts at the height of 5.000 meters. Its snow covered peak is clearly visible from Quito. Cotopaxi is also one of the highest active volcanoes in the world. 1.2.3 Nariz del diablo. The Nariz Del Diablo, or Devil’s Nose describes the train line between the towns Alauisi and Sibambe, the track gets its name of the great cost of human lives that it took to complete the train line. One of the greatest engineering projects ever undertaken in the Andes Mountains offers visitors panoramic views of the countryside. 1.2.4 Baños. The small city of Baños lies at the foot of the active volcano Tungurahua. Named after the hot springs fed by the thermal waters of the volcano, Baños is one of the most popular tourist spots in Ecuador. Baños is a favorite point for jungle tours, waterfalls cascading thousands of feet down deep river attract tourist as well. The Pailon Del Diablo waterfall where the Rio Verde and Rio Pastaza meet is the more impressive site. (Municipio de Guayaquil, 2015) 1.2.5 Tena. Situated in the Amazon rainforest region of Ecuador, for tourists Tena serves as a launching point for jungle adventures. Missionaries founded the town and a cinnamon industry helped the city survive. The Tena River joins with the Napo River, part of the Amazon, it’s one of the best places in the world for whitewater rafting and kayaking. 1.2.6 Montañita. Ecuador’s southern coastal region is world famous for its beach resorts, including the popular Montañita. Montañita town was a fishing village until the international surfing community discovered the marvelous areas for surfing conditions. Montañita is known for its nightlife as well, with nightclubs, bars and cafes to entertain locals and visitors alike. Also known as the Ecuadorian Vegas. 1.2.7 New Catedral of Cuenca. The colonial city of Cuenca is the third largest in Ecuador, popular for its year- round temperate climate.The New Cathedral of Cuenca is the city’s most recognizable land-mark. The construction of the church began in the late 1800’s and continued for nearly a century. 1.2.8 Otavalo Market. Part of the fun of traveling in Ecuador is exploring the handwork crafts by local artisans and there’s no better place to see and purchase local arts, crafts and clothing than at the markets in the small town of Otavalo. The city is known by the world over for the handwork of its people. (Municipio de Guayaquil, 2015) Every Saturday in the city’s Plaza de Ponchos, jewelry, wood and stone carvings as well as cloth are offered for sale. 1.2.9 Iglesia San Francisco.

MULTINATIONAL FEDERATION OF COMMUNITY TOURISM IN ECUADOR (FEPTCE) Ecuador Equator Initiative Case Studies Local sustainable development solutions for people, nature, and resilient communities UNDP EQUATOR INITIATIVE CASE STUDY SERIES Local and indigenous communities across the world are advancing innovative sustainable development solutions that work for people and for nature. Few publications or case studies tell the full story of how such initiatives evolve, the breadth of their impacts, or how they change over time. Fewer still have undertaken to tell these stories with community practitioners themselves guiding the narrative. To mark its 10-year anniversary, the Equator Initiative aims to fill this gap. The following case study is one in a growing series that details the work of Equator Prize winners – vetted and peer-reviewed best practices in community-based environmental conservation and sustainable livelihoods. These cases are intended to inspire the policy dialogue needed to take local success to scale, to improve the global knowledge base on local environment and development solutions, and to serve as models for replication. Case studies are best viewed and understood with reference to ‘The Power of Local Action: Lessons from 10 Years of the Equator Prize’, a compendium of lessons learned and policy guidance that draws from the case material.

  • A Brief History of Ecuadorian 'Ornithofily'
    Cotinga29-080304.qxp 3/4/2008 10:41 AM Page 15 Cotinga 29 A brief history of Ecuadorian ‘ornithofily’ Juan F. Freile Received 5 July 2007; final revision accepted 23 December 2007 Cotinga 29 (2008): 15–18 Presento un breve resumen de la historia de la ornitofilia, la afición por las aves, en Ecuador. El desarrollo de este ‘hobby’ en Ecuador es reciente y está en notable ascenso, aunque la investigación ornitológica lleva ya más de un siglo de vida. Los primeros albores de la ornitología en Ecuador fueron protagonizados por investigadores extranjeros, y recién hacia 1940 apareció el primer ecuatoriano en escena. De igual forma, el aviturismo también empezó como empresa de agencias internacionales (hacia 1980), pero los últimos diez años han visto el surgimiento de operadoras nacionales con guías de primer orden. Espero que esta reseña, junto con otras publicaciones previas sobre el desarrollo de la ornitología en Ecuador, incentiven la formación de una asociación nacional de observadores de aves, así como el incremento del trabajo de campo y la investigación. Bird observation is the most popular nature-related five additional species from the western lowlands of activity, and now involves considerable sums of Ecuador (probably the surroundings of Guayaquil, money10. Bird enthusiasts number millions in his hometown) are mentioned. The most notable Europe and North America, with some of the oldest example, however, is Jorge Carrera Andrade, ornithological and bird protection societies renowned as one of the most brilliant Ecuadorian numbering between 500,000 and 1,000,000 poets. Carrera Andrade, whose work appeared from members (e.g., the National Audubon Society, in the 1922 through 1972, wrote several poems devoted to USA, and Royal Society for the Preservation of birds, such us ‘Golondrinas’ (Swallows), and Birds, in the UK).
