Located in the Northern Andean - Imbabura Province, Otavalo is world wide known for its artisan markets. The region enjoys a pleasantly dry climate and the average temperature is 18 degrees centigrade (64 F).
Otavalo is the biggest market of the region, where indigenous people from dozens of local villages meet in the "Plaza de los Ponchos" to display their handcrafted textiles. The techniques used to make clothes, blankets, and wall hangings date back to colonial times. There are also other kinds of wares, such as native art, ceramics, jewellery, bags, and much more, all handcrafted by local artisans.
