Description
"Colorful Guayaquil Alley" by Catherine Sherman.
A colorful alley leading from the steps of Las Penas in Guayaquil, Ecuador, is a welcome stop for a rest from the climb to Santa Ana Chapel and a lighthouse at the top of Santa Ana Hill.
To reach the Chapel of Santa Ana, you need to climb 444 steps up Santa Ana Hill in Guayaquil, Ecuador. Each step is thoughtfully marked with its number so you know how much farther you must climb to reach the top.
The lighthouse and chapel in the Las Penas neighborhood, the birthplace of Guayaquil. Charming and colorful restored historic homes, shops and cafes line the steps up to the lighthouse with views along the way.
Guayaquil, officially Santiago de Guayaquil, is the largest and most populous city in Ecuador, with around 2.69 million people in the metropolitan area. The city is also Ecuador's main port. The city is the capital of the Ecuadorian province of Guayas and the seat of the namesake canton.
Guayaquil is located on the western bank of the Guayas River, which flows into the Pacific Ocean.

Thank you, Lynn! I didn't even see the cute little girl when I took the photo, so that was fun to see when I downloaded my photos.
