Fodor's Expert Review Museo Casa de María Augusta Urrutia
Old City
In the colonial section of Quito is the Museum of Maria Augusta Urrutia, which a grieving widow kept exactly as it had been when her husband was alive. Don't miss the collection of fine French porcelain, beautiful silver dinnerware, and Ecuadoran art from colonial times to the present. Of note are the works of Ecuadoran painter Victor Mideros.
