The Basilica of the National Vow (Spanish: Basílica del Voto Nacional) is a Roman Catholic church located in the historic center of Quito, Ecuador. It is the largest neo-Gothic basilica in the Americas. The basilica arose from the idea of building a monument as a perpetual reminder of the consecration of Ecuador to the Sacred Heart. The basilica remains technically "unfinished." Local legend says that when the Basílica is completed, the end of the world will come.
