It depends on your interests.  From Quito, the things most people do are go to the market at Otavalo and see the Mitad del Mundo monument at the Equator.  There's also a large, pre-Inca archaeological site called Cochasqui.  Cotopaxi and other volcanoes are breathtaking, and there are some trekking companies that can arrange for you to hike several.  The Galapagos are of course a big hit, but are sometimes out of reach of the budget traveler.  Along the coast is the Ruta del Sol, a bunch of villages along the main highway that participate in tourism.  At Puerto Lopez (along the Ruta del Sol) is the Parque Nacional de Machalilla, which features whale watching, bird watching, trips to the near-by Isla de la Plata, a beautiful beach at Los Frailes, and another huge archaeological site called Agua Blanca (the park is sometimes referred to as the poor man's Galapagos).  In Guayaquil itself is the new Malecon boardwalk area with shops, restaurants, and a new museum.  A little further south is Cuenca, which has some beautiful colonial architecture...the city itself is the thing to see.  If you're interested in the Amazon, a lot of people travel by bus from Quito to Tena, and operators there can organize river tours, meeting with shamans, and visiting bio-reserves.  Enjoy your trip!

About 1530, Nuño Beltrán de Guzmán (President of New Spain) was told by an Indian slave of the Seven Cities of Cibola that had streets paved with gold and silver. About the same time, Hernán Cortés was attracted by stories of Ciguatan, a wonderful country far to the northwest, populated by Amazonish women and abounding with gold, pearls, and gems. The Spaniards conjectured that these places may be one and the same.\n\nAn expedition in 1533 discovered a bay, most likely that of La Paz, before experiencing difficulties and returning. Cortés accompanied expeditions in 1534 and 1535 without finding the sought-after city.\n\nOn May 3, 1535, Cortés claimed "Santa Cruz Island" (now known as the peninsula of Baja California), and laid out and founded the city that was to become LaPaz later that spring.\n\nSee in\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_history

Ferdinand Magellan was the first to try.  The ships he commanded made it all the way, but he died en route.  Juan Sebastian Elcano took over after he died and brought the ships home, so he made it.  Garcia Jofre de Loaysa's tried a bit alter.  All of his ships sank and he died, but Fernando de la Torre and eight survivors were picked up by a Portuguese ship and made it home. The first person to plan and lead and expedition and survive it was Sir Francis Drake.

Francisco Paulino Hermenegildo Teódulo Franco y Bahamonde (pron. IPA : [fran'θisko 'franko]; December 4, 1892 – November 20 (or possibly November 19 [*]) 1975), abbreviated Francisco Franco y Bahamonde and commonly known as Generalísimo Francisco Franco, was the Head of State of Spain in parts of the country from 1936 and in its entirety from 1939 until his death in 1975. He presided over the authoritarian government of the Spanish State following victory in the Spanish Civil War. From 1947, he was de facto regent of Spain. During his rule he was known officially as por la gracia de Dios, Caudillo de España y de la Cruzada, or "by the grace of God, the Leader of Spain and of the Crusade."

I think Cortez went too far in his zealous attempt to spread Christianity.  He should have not destroyed the monuments.
