The 6 of December of 1534 the Act of Foundation of
San Francisco of Quito was signed, this in honor to the conqueror
Francisco Pizarro. At the top of the new

Sebastian Moyano. Under the European architectonic logic, the city in
grid form draws up. And one of the lots that reserve for the residence
of the Benalcazar founder gave to the edges of the town. |
