I was in the Otavalo area for 6 weeks and visited this park often when in town. It's a great place to relax and people watch.

Just an average spot in the city. It would have been nice, if it were not for the countless homeless people coming up to me just demanding money. Sad really, this place could have a lot more to offer.

A typical city square with a great garden and lots of people activity. Truly the heart of town because it is filled with locals as opposed to the market which is full of tourists.
