Quito Terraced Gardens at As The Sun Drops Toward The Horizon

by Amina Mills

The historic funicular railway ascends the steep Andean slope of Quito, Ecuador, as the sun drops toward the horizon. The metal car climbs along a narrow track that cuts through lush, steeply terraced gardens clinging to the hillside. Below, the colonial white facades and red tile roofs of the historic center glow in the fading light, against the deep green vegetation. Pedestrians walk along the paved path beside the tracks, pausing to watch the railway move. The unique vertical geography of the city, where modern transit infrastructure integrates seamlessly with traditional urban gardening practices on the mountainous terrain.
