Plaza Abdon CalderonThis square is the oldest urban landmark in the city, because around it “Santa Ana de los Ríos de Cuenca” was founded in 1557 by Gil Ramírez Davalos.
-
Plaza de las floresThis is one of the most picturesque public spaces in the city and constitutes the atrium of the church of El Carmen- Santuario Mariano. It is used for the sale of plants and flowers; hence its name derives. Objects related to the Catholic religious cult are also offered in this place.
-
Calle Santa AnaThis recently opened space is as narrow as it is beautiful and divides the cathedral from the San Luis seminary, this is a sample of the passage of the Cañari culture in our city.

La Catedral de la Inmaculada Concepcion de CuencaThis construction brings together three styles, leading the influence of the Neo-Gothic style, the domes; Renaissance and Roman-style arches, through these the cathedral is supported as it has only been built with bricks and using the mortar technique that is lime and sand to glue the bricks. This great work is 106 meters long and almost 50 wide and the central dome is more than 50 meters high.
-
Museo Catedral ViejaThis building for many years was considered the Main Church, thus being the oldest in the city.
-
Iglesia La MercedIn 1960, the congregation of Oblates decided to renovate the convent; however, the image of the church has remained quite faithful over time and has not undergone many transformations.
-
Iglesia de Todos SantosTodos Santos neighborhood: this neighborhood is popularly known as the bakery neighborhood because the traditional way of making bread in wood-fired ovens is still preserved, these bakeries were originally located in the Vado neighborhood.
-
El Puente RotoThis was the first bridge in this neighborhood, which was destroyed by the Tomebamba river when it overflowed one morning on April 3, 1950, that day this river destroyed 12 of the 14 bridges, in addition to the slaughterhouse.

Rio TomebambaThe Tomebamba river divides the city in two on one side in the historical one to the other in the modern one, it also bears the name that the city had in the time of the Incas, it is said that people tired of the damage that this river caused asked That he was baptized, that is how the Spaniards came down here and baptized him with the name of Julián Matadero, this as a plea to the river to calm its fury.

Plaza de San FranciscoLike the church, the San Francisco square was incorporated into the urban layout in 1558, just one year after the Spanish founding of the city. This is due to the fact that the owner of this land dies a few months after buying it, which is why this lot becomes municipal property.
