Ecuador
A modern and contemporary art gallery with changing exhibits. Housed in a beautiful old building.
Open mornings.
cnr. Mariscal Sucre and Talbot, Cuenca.
Cuenca’s plazas and common areas. The square alongside San Sebastian Church is one of the better ones. It’s the perfect place to get away from the hot midday sun, sit in the shade and read your book. Then, full of the joys, you can cross to the southern end of the square and get a bit of culture too. The Museum of Modern Art is located in a charming, whitewashed old adobe building that used to be a hospice for alcoholics. Some might say that is appropriate given some of the bizarre art on display, but it’s always interesting.
Near the corner of Mariscal Sucre and Coronel Talbot, the Plaza San Sebastian
