  • Luxury place.
  • Nothing.

“Some days ago, I was the main guide in this museum and I can say that this is the best place in Quito - Ecuador, if you want to know about the rich style of live in 10 century. So if you want to visit go to Garcia Moreno Street or 7 crosses street (is the same) and you walk 20 meters and you arrive to the museum it is next to a silver shop.”
