If you’re coming to Ecuador, here are some places you can consider for your proposal in the beautiful city of Quito, in the middle of the world, which combines the colonial charm with the Andean mountains
As photographers who love to capture real emotions, we made the following list, which is not in priority order.
Hotel Casa Gangotena:
It is a luxurious hotel in Quito’s historic center, with an elegant interior garden and a terrace overlooking Plaza San Francisco.
As an 18th-century mansion, it has beautiful decor on the walls and ceilings, and has an amazing staircase that is perfect for photos. Also, if you are here at sunset, the view of San Francisco Plaza is magical.

Hotel Plaza Grande:
It is a 16th-century house, one of the first in the city of Quito during the Spanish foundation. It features a colonial-style terrace overlooking Plaza Grande (Plaza de la Independencia), the Government House, and the Cathedral.

It is located on the hillside of El Panecillo, which is famous for the Virgin statue that is on the top of the hill.

If you and your partner are more plant lovers and need a space of tranquility amid the hustle and bustle, this is the place.
The Japanese garden has a lagoon and a beautiful stone path perfect for proposing.

Teleférico de Quito
This is for the most adventurous who love the heights (4000 mts above sea level).
You climb using the cable car, and then you can hike until you find the perfect spot. Here you will have a spectacular view.
From each of the Teleférico viewpoints, you can appreciate views of Quito, and if it is clear, you can see hills and snow-capped mountains.
Pro Tip: There is no additional cost besides the entrance ticket; it is free to hike. Check the weather because it can be windy or rainy. Wear a jacket just in case.
Parque de Guápulo
It’s a hidden gem of the capital city. Here we have a more controlled green space with large old trees and flowers, in the middle of the city.
You can choose this place for a more picnic-style proposal. You can bring some snacks or walk around until you find the most romantic spot.
Pro Tip: It is free to access, and you can arrive in an Uber.
