Cumandá Parque Urbano

Quito


The Old Town's old bus terminal has been converted into a sparkling covered cultural center and sports complex with a volleyball court, soccer pitch, climbing wall, yoga studios and several small swimming pools – all free of charge. Those not interested in getting their heart rate up can take in the temporary art exhibitions, theater performances, live music and other cultural events that are now held here. It's accessed from La Ronda.
