La Maná Canton, Administrative canton in Cotopaxi Province, Ecuador.

The La Maná Canton extends across 660 square kilometers of western Andean foothills, characterized by alluvial deposits and volcanic sands at coordinates -0.93, -79.22.

The region holds archaeological importance with discoveries of clay pieces, zoomorphic statuettes, and metal-melting pots from the ancient Tsachilas indigenous settlements.

The Traditional Fair of Pucayacu Parish operates every Thursday, presenting local agricultural products including green plantains, pork, and regional specialties.

The canton maintains an average temperature of 23°C throughout the year, with March and April recording higher temperatures and July experiencing cooler conditions.

The name La Maná originates from LANG MANA ATTI in Colorado language, translating to 'mine of great king' due to the area's mineral resources.
