Machu
Picchu:
Nestled in the
Andean mountain tops, overlooking the
Urubamba
River (meaning noisy water in Incan), Machu Picchu is the lost Incan
City.
Since the Spanish never found Machu Picchu it still remains intact
unlike many ancient cities. It is a large tourist attraction and is
hiked by many backpackers along the ancient Inca Trail.
This is the city’s common area, the grass is
professionally mowed by llamas.

the sun first hits upon the city. The windy loop is the road leading
