Quevedo, Agricultural center in Los Ríos Province, Ecuador.
Located 237 kilometers southwest of Quito, Quevedo extends along the banks of the Vinces River in a subtropical region at 74 meters above sea level.
The territory was inhabited by the Milagro-Quevedo culture from 500 CE until the Spanish arrival in 1500 CE, spanning across present-day Guayas, Los Ríos, and El Oro provinces.
The city received substantial Chinese immigration, resulting in numerous chifa restaurants that serve traditional Chinese-Ecuadorian fusion cuisine throughout the urban area.
The central bus terminal connects travelers to major Ecuadorian cities like Quito and Guayaquil, with local taxis charging standard fares within the city limits.
The Universidad Tecnica Estatal de Quevedo specializes in agricultural sciences, supporting the region's position as a leading global exporter of bananas, cacao, and coffee.
