Ecuador
Alcoholic Beverages in Ecuador
Most Ecuadorian wines are sweet and made from grape, apple, peach or other fruit; however, some good, dry wines are now being locally produced. The cheapest way to enjoy it is from a cartón (yes, a box) from the local supermarket. Clos is a good brand. Fine wines from Chile, Argentina, France, Spain and Italy are also available.
Rivers of Ecuador
The rivers of Ecuador are an important part of the nation's geography and economy. Most of the over 2,000 rivers and streams have headwaters in the Andes mountain range, flowing therefrom either westward toward the Pacific Ocean or eastward toward the Amazon River.
Religions of Ecuador
Ecuador supports religious freedom, enabling all to worship and attend any religious institutes that they choose to support. People in Ecuador are primarily Roman Catholic, a religion that was introduced into the country when the Spanish took over.
