There are four regions in Ecuador.Coastal: western part of Ecuador along the coast comprising 25% of the Country,

Sierra: the area along the Andes, essentially, the mountainous region,

Oriente: the easter section which is usually called the Amazon, and

Insular: the Island region about 600 miles off the coast called the Galapagos Islands.


Quito is located in the northern part of the Sierra at about 2800 meters elevation (9,350 feet). It is quite a distance from the Amazon and the weather is much cooler. The average daily temperature is14.0 °C

(57.2°F).
