Travellers looking to enjoy the city's cultural offerings, such as its museums, churches, and artisan markets, will find the dry season convenient as well. ### Where can I find the best nightlife in Cuenca? Cuenca has a few distinct areas for nightlife, offering different experiences. The historic centre, particularly around Calle Larga and President Borrero, is where you'll find many of the city's bars and pubs. These often feature live music, especially traditional Ecuadorian and Latin American genres. There are also several establishments offering craft beers and more sophisticated cocktails. It's a popular spot for both locals and visitors, and many places stay open until the early hours. Another area is the Remigio Crespo Toral neighbourhood, which has a concentration of more modern bars and some smaller clubs. This area tends to attract a younger crowd and offers places for dancing with more contemporary music. You'll find a mix of casual spots and those with a slightly more upscale feel. For a more relaxed evening, the area around Parque de la Madre often has cafes and bars that are ideal for a quiet drink and conversation. ### Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?
