What architectural style predominates in Ecuadorian colonial cities?
Answer (En)
The architectural style that predominates in Ecuadorian colonial cities is mainly baroque and neoclassical. The Baroque is characterized by its exuberant ornamentation, use of Solomonic columns, decorative pediments and decorative details in relief. This style can be seen in churches such as the Company of Jesus in Quito, with its elaborately decorated façade. On the other hand, neoclassical, influenced by Greek and Roman architecture, is characterized by its simplicity and balance, with Doric, Ionic or Corinthian columns and triangular pediments. Examples of this style are found in buildings such as the Cuenca Cathedral, which combines neoclassical elements with local influences. These architectural styles are mixed in Ecuadorian colonial cities, creating a rich and varied architecture that reflects the history and culture of the country.
