Constructed
in 1790, Hacienda Pinsaquí was originally a colonial
textile enterprise, employing over one thousand weavers and
spinners. Many of Pinsaquí’s fabrics were exported
to the United States in the late 1800s where they first received
international recognition. To this day, the Hacienda retains
the character and authenticity of its earlier incarnation,
making for a unique travel experience.
Over the centuries Pinsaquí has hosted numerous illustrious
guests. Most famous of all is General Simón Bolívar,
the revered liberator of Ecuador, who often spent the night
at the hacienda on his trips to and from Bogotá, Colombia.
Later in the nineteenth century, the hacienda’s walls witnessed
the "Treaty of Pinsaquí ," an historic peace
agreement between Colombia and Ecuador.
This unique hacienda makes an ideal base to explore the surrounding areas. Whether you are looking
for outdoor pursuits, relaxation, antiques, handicrafts, and
whether you are single, a couple or a family, we guarantee
that a few daysat Pinsaqui will make your stay in Ecuador
unforgettable.
