Ecuador recently got into a quest to set the world record for the largest flower arrangement. Half a million roses were used for the building of a big pyramid of roses.

El Universal reports that the giant flower pyramid is a replica of a pyramid which is located in Cochasqui archaeological park, also located in Pedro Moncayo. In Pedro Moncayo, you can find many of those pyramids which are called ramp mounds or tolas and they were made before the Incan civilization.

Having in mind that Ecuador is the world’s third largest exporter of cut flowers (after the Netherlands and Colombia), this building wonder is a good way to use your natural resources in order to boost tourism and promote the export of those resources.

Surely, this flower pyramid will be one of the most favorite places for tourists who come to Ecuador. We can say that this Guinness World Record setter will surely be one of the most unique and important symbols of Ecuador pretty soon.
