Some of the reviews had given me the idea that this was a very cheap little place--it's not. The birds are kept in large enclosures and seem well maintained. The variety of birds is amazing! We really liked seeing the condors and harpy eagles. We went there in the morning and the birds were very active then.

A huge town square filled with stalls and a myriad of Ecuadorean arts and crafts adits you. Open 9 to 6. Went on a Wednesday afternoon. You can bargain...stayed just one hour . Long enough to find beautiful things, not too long to get overwhelmed.

The altitude gave us a bit of a headache because we had just arrived to Ecuador and it's a bit difficult to breath but it's beautiful and easy walking. Plenty of stops and snacks along the way. The meal at the Hacienda was amazing.

Worth a mile hike on well groomed trail to picturesque waterfall...sacred waterfall. Water conservation and reverence is at the heart of all indigenous cultures as is love and protection for Pache Mama , Mother earth. Walk through indigenous village, Just sign in as guest,,,proceed to trails..one handicapped accessible for large wheeled wheel chair. Oly a short $2 van ride from Otavalo Square.

I was in the Otavalo area for 6 weeks and visited this park often when in town. It's a great place to relax and people watch. Lots of benches both in and out of the sun and many people sitting on the grass as well. We liked to relax and feed the pigeons that frequent the area. From children to oldsters this park has it all. On busier days (like Saturday when the market is in full force) there are also plenty of food vendors. It's just a short walk from Plaza de Poncho and well worth doing.
