Ecuador is a small country, but travel between regions can be slow. You are likely to have to spend one night midway, in some unremarkable town like Riobamba. Still, most towns have some attractive features: interesting architecture, a stunning geological setting, and great ice cream!
	Riobamba has a handsome church, well lit at night, the Iglesia de San Antonio (left). Many of the older buildings have been repainted in bright colors. Tall volcanoes surround the town.
One night in Rio... bamba that is Riobamba is renowned as the starting point for a scenic train ride. However, the train is not a train any more: today, the ride is aboard an autoferro, the mule of transportation modes, basically a bus on tracks (right).
