8. Mitad del Mundo
La Mitad del Mundo, literally “half of the world”, is where the equatorial line materializes. Located a few kilometers from Quito, a monument pays tribute to the first French geodetic mission. This expedition was intended to validate the scientific theories of the time. An exhibition explains the differences between the two hemispheres. Many playful experiments are used to illustrate scientific principles. La Mitad del Mundo is an interesting activity, easily accessible from Quito if you are looking for what to do in Ecuador.
