Buy bread from a 1820 wood oven at Santo Pan
- Cuenca, Ecuador

Sobre esta Tip
Inside the Todosantos complex on Calle Larga, the Santo Pan bakery still bakes daily in a wood-fired oven dating from 1820, described as the oldest in Cuenca. Buy a loaf or a pastry, then pair it with the specialty coffee sold in the complex or an Agua de Todosantos made with ingredients from its own garden. It sits in the same complex as the dome viewpoint, so you can combine both in one visit. Confirm the opening days before you go.
