Our national government center. Here works the president and there is a museum where you can learn about our history
At the center of Quito’s Old Town, this plaza is a constant hub of activity, often serving as a site for political activism or public opinion, but also buzzing with tourists from around the world. In the center stands a large monument installed in the late 19th century in commemoration of Ecuador’s independence. The plaza is also the site of the assasination of Ecuadorian president Gabriel Garcia Moreno in 1875. Ecuador’s Presidential Palace overlooks the plaza and around the exterior are a variety of restaurants

Tour the Government Palace and Meet the President of Ecuador How cool is this! Every Monday in Quito, there is a big changing of the guard ceremony outside of the Presidential Palace, also known as Carondelet Palace. During this procession, it’s a weekly tradition for the president to come out and wave to the crowd gathering on Plaza Grande down below. It’s all quite the pomp and circumstance! A marching band parades through. Guards on horses have a choreographed moment. And then everyone in the plaza gets a chance to wave to the President of Ecuador. It's also possible to tour Quito's presidential palace! This is an interesting opportunity to be able to tour the Ecuadorian equivalent of the White House. And it's yet another free thing to do in Quito. The grand tour can take up to two hours, visiting the stately interior of offices, banquet rooms, courtyards, and the balcony. Note, there is no longer a ticketing system as there once was. Now advanced reservations are required.
