Being so well located, there's no reason not to take the short ride down to the old church for a walk around.

I speak spanish so getting to Guapulo wasn't too much of a problem; however, recently the bridge connecting Guapulo to Cumbaya was condemned which makes Guapulo more of a pain to get to and it isn't exactly the nicest neighborhood...

5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 October 2011

Guapulo is a wealthy neighborhood with a great gazebo facing the Guapulo´s sanctuary and GREAT green hills. The area is very nice to walk, nothing historical but fancy and nice buildings. Cafe STubel might be a great place to eat due to the city view, it is just next to the gazebo. There is a bust of Orellana (hero).
