Language in Alausí

Alausí is a town in the Alausi Canton, located in the Chimborazo province in Ecuador. The town is particularly well-known across Ecuador for its railway heritage. It was named a Pueblo Mágico (magical town) by the Ecuadorian Ministry of Tourism (MINTUR) in 2019. Alausí is known for its railroad attraction of La Nariz Del Diablo (Devil's Nose). Using a system of switchback it enables the train to zigzag down a steep mountain. The train travels through the Andes where the track descends nearly 500 meters in just 12 kilometers.
