Cayambe

---

Cayambe is located on the Panamerican highway and is famous for its Volcano Cayambe, cheese bizcochos ( buttery biscuits that are lovely), famous fiestas and Ecuador´s flower industry. We visited a few of Mety´s flower plantations which was fascinating. Flowers including roses are Ecuadors 4th biggest exports and it was interesting to see how the plants are cultivated and packaged for export.

In the centre of town is the leafy Parque Central, lots of biscuit factories and a market. After we drove to Lago de San Pablo which is a stunning lake with views of Volcan Imbabura.
