Ciudad Mitad del Mundo it is a popular tourist destination of the city of Quito proclaimed Patrimonio  Cultural del Ecuador. Visitors can have their photo taken of them standing on the Equator, with one foot in the Northern Hemisphere and the other in the Southern Hemisphere. It’s a great way to get that much-desired photograph. In addition, they may balance an egg on a nail without having to hold it and weigh a kilo less than in other places.
