Ecuador (i/ˈɛkwədɔːr/ E-kwə-dawr, Spanish: [ekwaˈðor]), officially the Republic of Ecuador (Spanish: República del Ecuador, which literally translates as "Republic of the Equator"), is a representative democratic republic in northwestern South America, bordered by Colombia on the north, Peru on the east and south, and the Pacific Ocean to the west. Ecuador also includes the Galápagos Islands in the Pacific, about 1,000 kilometres (620 mi) west of the mainland.
What is now Ecuador was home to a variety of Amerindian groups that were gradually incorporated into the Inca Empire during the fifteenth century. The territory was colonized by Spain during the sixteenth century, achieving independence in 1820 as part of Gran Colombia, from which it emerged as its own sovereign state in 1830. The legacy of both empires is reflected in Ecuador's ethnically diverse population, with most of its 15.2 million people being mestizos, followed by large minorities of European, Amerindian, and African descendants.

The joint Command of the Armed Forces of Ecuador here on Tuesday presented its military awards to a group of Chinese doctors to honor their one-year service in the country.

Ecuador's president has emerged defiant on Friday hours after being rescued by the military, which stormed a hospital in Quito, the capital, where he was taken hostage by rebellious members of the country's police force. The policemen were protesting for better wages and working conditions before they abducted Rafael Correa while he was being treated for exposure to tear gas. Correa issued a warning against the hostage takers for what he called a threat to the country's democracy. [October 1, 2010]

Travel video about destination Ecuador. Ecuador is the smallest of the Andes’ states in South America and a land that derived its name from the Equator. A natural paradise with a living Indian culture and captivating colonial towns that was once part of the Inca Realm and later the sought-after possession of various European colonial powers. Quito, the "divine city", is the capital of Ecuador. Steep and narrow steps lead downhill to the Centro Historico in which many of its small buildings have been rebuilt several times due to devastating earthquakes. In 1536, Quito was newly founded and built on the ruins of an Inca town. West of Quito the edge of the extinct Pululahua Volcano is accessible by car. It is the largest volcanic crater in South America and the huge caldera with its steep ...

I didn't know much about Ecuador except the Galapagos islands so as I arrived in Quito, my initial planned was to be in the country for 2 weeks and move on to Peru. What I did not realize though was the how much more to Ecuador than it is advertise. Did you know that there are more bird species in Ecaudor than in North America and Europe combined!? Did you know that Ecuador has one of the most concentrated numbers of volcano in an area!? Did you know that there are so many volcanos here, you can be busy hiking them for weeks!? Did you know that you can go off and hike 3 - 4 volcanoes right from Quito and came back and sleep in the city? Me neither! Ecuador is truly a hikers' and nature lover's paradise! Instead of spending only 2 weeks, I spent a whole month traveling around Ecuador. I ...

My friends and I spent the weekend in the Cotopaxi Province of Ecuador. It is home to the Cotopaxi volcano, which is the second highest summit in the country. We stayed at the gorgeous Secret Garden hostel, which had a guide take us trekking in the forest and along the streams to waterfalls. We also went horseback riding for six hours up to the top of a mountain for a closer look at the volcano.

Traveling to far away places has a different level of adventure for everyone. Some find the unknown to be exciting, willing to risk it all by not planning, with the daring-do and devil may care attitude only the most well centered and adaptable possess. On the other hand most like some semblance of order, while not giving in to the hum-drum, memorized drone of the disinterested tour guide spouting poor English at best. Going to the same places, seeing what everyone in the world has already seen, with little chance to really discover those unforgettable tidbits which create indelible, technicolor, 3D, forget the Kodak moments. Being savvy when you haven’t been to the place you’re going takes a little bit of time, and being in touch with someone who’s been there…done that…got the story wi...
The Galapagos are found 600 miles off the Western coast of Ecuador and is a fascinating and pristine eco-tourism destination. The number of people who can visit each year is limited and to go, you must be with a licensed guide and company, like Ecoventura, which offers 7-night cruise options on a 20-passenger boat. The small group atmosphere helps maintain what makes the Galapagos feel so special- you will never feel overcrowded. Groups follow a closely prescribed itinerary and explore 1-2 new islands each day. If you go, these will likely be some of the key highlights.
