Investments in new tourism projects in Baños, Ecuador, come from the public and private sectors. According to the mayor of Tungurahua Canton Marlon Guevara, in the last four years, nearly USD 150 million has been invested in the construction of hotels, restaurants, bars, nightclubs, recreational centers, infrastructure for practicing extreme sports, as well as improvements.
Guevara explains that this figure comes from the analysis made on road and infrastructure development works provided by the City Hall, in addition to projects submitted.
