Hiding among the mountains, just an hour and 15 minutes from the capital and 55 kilometers away, is the oldest rural parish of Quito, called San Miguel de Perucho, in honor of Saint Michael the Archangel. The locals also refer to it as the "Vilcabamba of Quito" because it is situated in a valley with a privileged warm climate at an altitude of 2,063 meters above sea level, embodying the magic of a paradise that has it all. It is also a paradise for mandarines and sustainable coffee production.
