Description
Cumbaya is a rural parish of the Metropolitan District of Quito in the Pichincha Province, Ecuador. It is located east of Quito, in the Tumbaco Valley northwest of Ilala volcano, in the valley of the San Pedro River, a tributary of the Guayllabamba River, at an elevation of approximately 2200 m (7200 ft) above sea level. Because it is at a lower altitude than Quito, it has a warmer climate (about 2 to 5 degrees Celsius higher on average). In recent years, the parish has become a commuter town of Quito as a significant number of middle-upper and higher class families move from the city to live a more suburban lifestyle. This shift in population has attracted money to the area that boosted the local economy. Examples of architecture drawing from the area's rural beginnings include the Iglesia de Cumbaya in the Main Square.
Proceeds from the sale of this photograph goes to help orphaned and abandoned children in Colombia South America.
