    Quito, in Ecuador.......South America, lies on the equator. Could this be the city you're asking about? As for the seasons, I haven't a clue.

    Seasons between the tropics (23 degrees North and 23 degrees South) do not match either the Northern Hemisphere or Southern Hemisphere notions of Summer and Winter. Instead, it is hottest in Spring and Autumn, with Summer and Winter as the coolest seasons.

    There are several cities that lie on the equator- not just Quito, Ecuador. Yaren, the capital of Nauru, is another city.

    Is the equator part of the northern hemisphere or southern hemisphere?

    If water goes down the plug hole in an anti-clockwise direction in the northern hemisphere and the opposite is true for the southern hemisphere then what happens if you live on the equator?

    Some people will have observed water flowing down a drain clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and counterclockwise in the Southern Hemisphere but if you fill a bathtub with water at the equator how does it go down the drain?
