Machu picchu hiking trails

#hikingtrails Machu Picchu, one of the new seven wonders of the world, is located near the hot water town in Peru. It is the lost city of the Inca Empire. Built in the 15th century, it is famous for its exquisite stone carvings, complex terraces and mysterious history. Machu Picchu was discovered in 1911 by the American explorer Hailem Bingham. The ancient city shows the excellent engineering and astronomical knowledge of the Incas, and there are still many unsolved mysteries, such as its true use and construction method. Generally, you need to take a plane to Cusco, sign up for a tour group or take the PeruRail/IncaRail|/bus to the hot water town by yourself, and then take the official bus of the scenic spot (you can also walk, but it is not recommended, you have to take too many mountain roads). Because the official website tickets are too difficult to grab, for convenience, you can choose to sign up for a tour group. The tour group can include tickets, but most of them take the route one (previously, the first route was the best, because you can see the long view and enter the interior of the monument. Now the route reform is that you can't go inside to see, but the second route can enter There are many alpacas on the mountain, which are very cute. There are two mountains right in front of Machu Picchu, namely Huchu Picchu (left) and Huana Picchu (right). You can overlook the whole picture of Machu Picchu when climbing, and of course you have to grab tickets.
