75 años VIVIENDO dentro de UN VOLCÁN que puede despertar. "Aquí me he de morir" 🇪🇨

There are only two inhabited volcanic craters in the entire world. One is on a remote island in Japan. The other is 30 minutes from Quito, Ecuador—and today I went down to the bottom to meet the people who chose to live there. 🌋🇪🇨 In this video, I enter the Pululahua Geobotanical Reserve, the first reserve of its kind in all of South America, and descend nearly 1,000 meters to the base of the crater, where more than 30 families have lived for generations. I met a woman who has lived there for 75 years, and she told me something I'll never forget: "I'm going to die here." I'll tell you why the eruption 2,500 years ago changed the history of the Valdivia, Chorrera, and Cotocollao cultures, why the crater is horseshoe-shaped, how its unique microclimate was formed, and what the Geophysical Institute says about whether this volcano, currently classified as dormant, could one day become active again. We also meet Franklin, a local artisan who works with bull horn and swordfish bone, and I'll give you a complete guide on how to get there: 100% free access, buses from Quito starting at 50 cents, and everything you need to know before heading down (it's best to go before noon, before the fog rolls in). 📍 Pululahua Geobotanical Reserve, Ecuador — 28 km from Quito 🏨 This video is made possible by Hotel King Experience, your perfect base for exploring Quito and its surroundings — including Pululahua and the Middle of the World. Location, comfort, and top-notch service so you can focus solely on descending (and ascending) the volcano. Contact them at: 📱+593987084347 📧 [email protected] 📶 Travel connected with HolaFly.
