The nightlife  of Ecuador is said to be one of the best parts of living there. On weekdays, most Lojanos stay at home and get rested up for the next day. But on Thursday night through the weekend, they go out and have fun until the wee hours of the morning. La Siembra is a soft and cozy bar near downtown. It is a common meeting place for friends that just want to chill and have fun. They have good music playing the whole time and they serve drinks. It is a great place to hang out and drink but they don't have any food, and if so then not much.

Across the street from La Siembra is its competitor, Free Ride. They have larger amounts of food and more choices in this sporty feeling bar. This is the only place in downtown Ecuador that offers karaoke, and you dont have to sing in Spanish, they have it in English too! El Bielero is a night club very similar to La Siembra. But unlike La Siembra, it is hosted by a real DJ and is decorated with guitars hanging on the walls. El Bielero is also much larger than La Siembra and has a big dance floor fo getting your groove on.

The coolest sounding club to me is La Fiesta Discoteca, meaning the Club Party. This club resembles what us Americans think of when we think of night clubs. Darkly lit club with a bar along one wall and a huge dance floor. This is also hosted by a real DJ who plays Salsa, Merengue, and American hits. It is packed every Friday and Saturday, but if you can manage to get a cushioned booth, it is worth it after you are tired of dancing. Out of all the night clubs, I would be attending this one the most.
