Cuenca, or Santa Ana de los Cuatro Ríos de Cuenca, is nestled in the highlands of Ecuador, South America, at 2,560 meters above sea level. This charming city, recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site due to its well-preserved historic center, is a spectacle of old-world architecture, complete with cobblestone streets, ornate churches, and stunning Spanish colonial buildings. This cultural heartland of Ecuador is also known for its vibrant arts scene, renowned Panama hats - surprisingly not from Panama, but originally and beautifully hand-woven in Cuenca, and a rich tradition of craftsmanship. Bathed by four rivers, hence the city's full name, Cuenca pleases nature lovers with its nearby Cajas National Park offering hiking trails through cloud forests and around glacial lakes. Also, playing host to an array of local and international festivals, it's no wonder Cuenca is beloved by tourists!
