La Ronda is one of the oldest streets of Quito, dating back to 1480, and was the bohemian heart of the city, the gathering place for painters, writers and poets of the 30s. In the houses of this narrow street, many of the traditional folk songs were written and politicians, romantics, and bohemians spent their time on its walkways. Today, La Ronda has regained its charm with galleries, cafes, bars and shops that have moved into its historical houses.
