CUENCA A CITY TO VISIT

Cuenca is situated in Ecuador, is a very cold city, and actually in the city is raining a lot.
Cuenca is a touristic city, where you can visit a lot of churches and museums.
Its cathedral, Maria Auxiliadora, is very beautiful and big. The cathedral is located in Benigno Malo Street, betwen Simón Bolívar and Sucre streets. Other churches that you should visit are San Alfonso, San Blas, Santo Domingo, and other churches.
In front of the Cathedral, is the Central Park, named Calderon Park, is a beautiful place where you can sit and watch people and trees. Around Cathedral Park, is the Goberment building, the Old Cathedral (that recently was fix), and Majoring building.
The only one city in Ecuador that has four rivers, is Cuenca. The rivers are Machangara, Tarqui, Yanuncay and Tomebamba. The last one, has a wonderful “Barranco”, where you can walk visiting old houses, and our customs, like women washing clothes in the river, this activity is very interesting, but sadly it is disappearing.
Cuenca mistakely is called Colonial City, has only 3 or 4 colonial houses, most of the houses in downtown are republican.
