One of the thousands of varieties of orchids that call Ecuador home. Found in the tiny village of Mindo, a cloud forest less than 2 hours from Quito by bus, but a world away in all other respects. Stroll through butterfly farms, spot the famous cock-of-the-rock (it’s a bird!), go tubing on the river, or ziplining for $10.
