Mitad del Mundo – Middle of the World Tour

Located just 26 km north of Quito, this complex commemorates the 18th-century Franco-Spanish Geodesic Mission that determined the shape of the Earth. The central icon is the imposing Equatorial Monument, which stands 30 meters high, is visible from afar, and is crowned by a terrestrial globe.

By crossing the emblematic yellow line, you will have the perfect opportunity to take unforgettable photographs and become, literally, the center of the world.
