Ecuador has become more aware that it's cultural heritage is an exportable commodity. This souvenir deck, in contrast to the earlier “Ciudad de Quito” deck, features a wide range of tourist / heritage imagery, including street carnivals, indigenous people, folklore, rodeos, rural dwellings, natural scenery and Galapagos Islands.
