Audio Guide of the Monument to Pedro Fermín Cevallos

Cevallos Park is a public space and is therefore open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for everyone to enjoy. It is located in the center of Ambato, on Eloy Alfaro, between Bolívar and Sucre streets, so you can easily reach it on foot from any central point or by public transport.

Not at all! Cevallos Park is a public space and access is completely free. You can enjoy its green areas, monuments, and atmosphere at no cost.

For a relaxed visit and to enjoy its details, such as the statues, the gardens, and a moment of rest on a bench, I would recommend setting aside between 30 minutes and 1 hour. If you join a tour with our audio guide, perhaps a bit longer to hear the full story.

Cevallos Park is one of the oldest and most significant parks in the city. Its name pays tribute to the historian and writer Pedro Fermín Cevallos, and it is a historic meeting point that has witnessed important events in the social and political life of Ambato. It is a true testament to Ambato's identity.

Cevallos Park is pleasant at any time, but I recommend visiting early in the morning or late in the afternoon, when the weather is milder and the atmosphere is calmer. During the Festival of Fruits and Flowers (late February), it comes especially alive, although with larger crowds.

As a central, public park, its paths and walkways are mostly flat and paved, which makes access easier for people in wheelchairs or with strollers. However, keep in mind it is an old space, so it is always wise to watch out for small uneven spots.

You are in the heart of Ambato. Just a few steps away you can visit the Cathedral of Ambato, the City Museum (the former Bolívar National School), and the Juan Montalvo House Museum. The surrounding area is full of shops and dining options to round out your visit.

Sure, here are a couple of tips: wear comfortable clothes and proper footwear for walking. And, of course, I invite you to use our iAudioguía audio guide; with it you will discover hidden stories and details that will let you see the Park in a totally new and richer way. Don't forget your camera to capture the beauty of the place!
