Parque Centenario de Guayaquil
This is a public urban park located in downtown Guayaquil, established to mark the centennial of the city independence. Visitors use the space as a pedestrian area to walk under tree cover and take a break from the surrounding urban environment.
Getting There
The park is situated within the city center. Depending on your starting point in the downtown area, it is accessible via a short walk or a brief taxi ride, typically taking less than 10 minutes.
