Ambato,

Ambato in Few lines.

Ambato (full form, San Juan de Ambato) is a city in the centre of Ecuador, lying on the banks of the Ambato River. It is the capital of Tungurahua Province, at an elevation of 2,600 meters above sea level. The population is 154,095 (INEC, 2001).

The city is a leading commercial and transportation centre on a fertile region near the northern foot of the volcano Tungurahua. On mondays, it hosts the largest fruits, vegetables and assorted meats market in the country.

An earthquake on August 5, 1949 destroyed most of the city so that only few buildings of the colonial era remain.

As a way to recover from the tragic earthquake, Ambato began its tradition of the Fruits and Flowers Festival. It is now a major tourist attraction held during carnival season.

Landmarks include the mausoleum of Juan Montalvo, the estate of Juan León Mera, and the white Ambato Cathedral.

Ambato is also where, on November 12, 1821, Antonio José de Sucre achieved a major victory over the Spanish Royalist Army during the war for independence.

Famous people from Ambato include master painter Aníbal Villacís.

A new mall with a movie theater has recently been built (2005) called "El Mall de Los Andes".
