El Panecillo
El Panecillo is a 200-metre-high hill of volcanic-origin, with loess soil, located between southern and central Quito. On top stands the Virgin de Quito, a 45-meter-tall monument erected in 1975. The virgin stands on top of a globe and is stepping on a snake, which is a classic madonna iconography. Less traditional are the wings.
