Ecuador Chimborazo volcano view
One of the most fantastic views of the Chimborazo volcano is 15 minutes away from Riobamba. This picture was taken in the summer, but the mountain is covered in snow all year round. You can also view the Carihuairazo volcano from this spot.
Chimborazo summit is 6,268m above sea level and it's the farthest site from the center of the earth.

Photography Tips
Very easy photograph. Just bring a tripod if you prefer. Amazing sunrises from this spot also. The weather is only cold in the morning so bring a light jacket. If the day is too sunny you may use a polarizing filter for a more dramatic sky.
