Things to do
Edit This
Calderon's claim to fame are its bread figurine workshops where you can see the dough figures being made by hand. There is also a pretty church on the attractive town square.
Bread Dough Figurines
Edit ThisThe little bread dough figures represent traditional costumes, Ecuadorian animals, Christmas decorations and any number of other things depending on the time of year. The dough is painted and varnished so the figures are inedible but don't go off.
Tours can be arranged from Quito to come souvenir shopping in Calderon, but it is easy to travel on the public buses and just wander around the town.
