when you produce sound, and it hits a barrier, and reflect back. echo is hearing the sound again after the vanish of the original sound. you can only hear it if these two reasons are satisfied:
1) the barrier should be wide (large) enough.
2) distance between source of sound ( the observer) and the barrier is 17 meters or more.

The easiest answer is that you hear echo by your own ears. DONE BY AHMED HUSSIEN and i thank mr. Ahmed my physics teacher... because without him i wouldn't of had these information....
One of the best locations to hear an echo of a sound is in a canyon. The sound bounces off all of the walls, one at a time, until it is not heard anymore.
An empty room , a cave / tunnel or a big enclosed space
Reflection
I would expect to hear an echo in a gymnasium because if you think of a basketball bouncing just 1 you hear it coming right back at you.

The gaps between the reflections are long when you hear an echo. When the reflections are very close together then you here no single echo, you hear many close reflections as a reverberation.
