Guayaquil

Saturday, 1 September 2018

After returning to Guayaquil, Ecuador, in the morning, we had an opportunity to take an afternoon city tour.

We may not be in the Galapagos anymore, but we're still in iguana territory. Iguanas were everywhere. On the ground in city parks, ...
... and in the trees everywhere. If you looked up into a tree, you could find at least one iguana, usually several.
I promise, the last iguana photo of the trip!
The cathedral.
Cerro del Carmen, one of the oldest neighborhoods in Guayaquil, near the modern riverwalk (Malecon 2000).
The large ferris wheel on the riverwalk.
The old neighborhood of Cerro Santa Ana has a lot of steps. They're even numbered (as in Palitana in Gujarat).
The old section at the base of Cerro Santa Ana.
The modern section of Santa Ana. These new high-rises are blocking the view of the older buildings on the hill.
