• Vilcabamba, Ecuador
  Vilcabamba, Valley of Longevity

  

  

  
  Vilcabamba, Ecuador, is known to be a place where people live to an
  average age of 100 years because of the clustered mineral water, rich
  soil, simple farming lifestyle and invigorating mountain climate

  Vilcabamba, in the valley of longevity, is located in a subtropical
  climate, at 4600 ft. and the mountains around it rise to 18,000 ft.

  For more information, check out this web site
  (which is also where I got the above pictures).  Have I been to
  Vilcabamba?  I have been through there en route elsewhere, but I
  didn’t stop…
