Lonely Planet review for Parque La Carolina
North of the Mariscal lies the giant Parque La Carolina. On weekends it fills with families who come to pedal paddleboats, play soccer and ride bikes. The park's Jardín Botánico has more than 300 Ecuadorian plants and tree species and an outstanding orquideario (orchid greenhouse) - it's well worth a look. The Museo de Ciencias Naturales, the country's best natural history museum, is next door.
