Pinsaquí, Superior Tourist. Imbabura, Ecuador. The Hacienda
was first constructed in the year 1790, this uniquely restored colonial
hacienda was originally a textile workshop, employing 1000 local
weavers and spinners.
Fabrics woven in Pinsaquí were exported to the United States
in the late 1800´s. Among its illustrious guests is General
Simón Bolívar, who usually spent the night at Pinsaquí
on his trips back and forth to Bogotá. An important Treaty
between Colombia and Ecuador was signed at the Hacienda, and much
history is in its halls. The main structure of the Hacienda was
destroyed by an earthquake in 1867 and has now been restored and
adapted with 16 ample and comfortable rooms, with heavy ornate beds
and fireplaces, for its guests. Pinsaquí has a unique atmosphere
with long corridors, wide walls, antique candelabra and furniture,
with echoes of sounds and voices from the past. With three centuries
of history, romantic Hacienda Pinsaquí invites you to be
