Everything you need to identify Ecuador in GeoGuessr — from the writing system and road signs to bollard colours, utility poles, and the landscape itself.
These are the fastest visual identifiers — things you should look for in the first few seconds of a round.
Andes mountains divide the country — dramatic highland valleys (Sierra) vs tropical coast vs Amazon
Avenue of the Volcanoes: snow-capped volcanoes line the central valley (Cotopaxi is distinctive)
Equatorial location — vegetation is lush year-round in the coast and Amazon regions
Galapagos Islands (marine iguanas, giant tortoises) referenced on tourism signs
Indigenous Kichwa cultural references and textiles visible on markets and signs
These details help narrow down a location once you've spotted the country — or confirm your guess when you're unsure.

Ecuador drives on the right side of the road. In-game, the Google camera car is on the right side — so oncoming traffic comes from the left. This is the norm for most of Europe, the Americas, and continental Asia.
Ecuador is the most biodiverse country per square kilometre on Earth, housing 10% of all plant species. The Galápagos Islands, 1,000km offshore, inspired Darwin's theory of evolution and remain one of the world's greatest natural laboratories.
