All the Machu
Picchu pictures you'll find online can't and won't compare the
detailed labor that the Incas had to put on, in order to get this
amazing result. Not only Machu Picchu but lot's of archaeological sites
spread through Peru show the perfection that this culture had in mind,
and the vision they worked hard for.
Here some interesting Machu
Picchu facts:
- Machu Picchu is called the “lost city” because the jungle had
literally swallowed it when Yale explorer Hiram Bingham III
“rediscovered” it in 1911. When the overgrown vegetation was removed,
the complex of ruins was revealed.
For Machu
Picchu Tours we always recommend to spend at least one night in
Aguas Calientes, the nearest town (20 min. away). For those who have the
time and are looking for an incredible experience, we recommend to star
two nights. There are all kinds of hotels in Aguas Calientes, from
hostals to 5 stars hotels. Enjoy Machu Picchu!
Peru Travel Packages is amazing and interesting because there
