Palacio de Carondelet
訪問に最適な時期
Early morning, before 10 AM, when the cobblestone streets are closed to traffic and the midday sun hasn't yet made the square too hot. Avoid major national holidays, when the balconies and the square fill up for official ceremonies.
予算のヒント
Free access to the square itself, and the public areas offer plenty of atmosphere without an entrance fee. Choose a tour with the Spanish tourist guide, which is cheaper than private tours, and then head up to the rooftop terrace by buying a combination ticket for the nearby museums.
おすすめ対象
History enthusiasts, Photography enthusiasts, Culture travelers, First-time visitors to Ecuador
訪問時間の計画
1-2 hours
概要
クイックファクト: 大統領宮殿にはなんと260もの部屋があるが、訪問者が見ることができるのはそのほんの一部にすぎない。無数のクリスタルのシャンデリアと手描きの天井は、幾度もの改築を経てきたことを物語っている。建物はキト最古の歩行者天国に面している。
見どころ: 建物前の衛兵パレードは単なる形式的な儀式ではない。時刻が来ると、衛兵たちは激しいアンデスの朝の交通と車のクラクションに合わせて行進する。屋上テラスでは、ピチンチャ、コトパクシ、アンティサナの3つの火山と向かい合って立ち、街が360度に広がるのを見渡すことができる。
インサイダーヒント
- Bring a scarf or jacket, even if the morning is sunny, because the sun quickly disappears behind the volcano in the afternoon.
- The best photo angle is from Parque Seminario looking east, where the green trees make the white facades light up.
- Look for the hidden wooden balconies on the side streets, which most tourists hurry past without noticing.
- Keep an eye on the changing of the guard at the ceremonial entrances, it happens every hour and offers a glimpse of military precision.
