Machu Pikchu (lingua Quechua: Machu Pikchu [ˈmɑtʃu ˈpixtʃu] scil. 'vetus cacumen'), orthographia Hispanica Machu Picchu, est Praecolumbianus saeculi quinti decimi Imperii Incarum situs, 2430 m (7970 pedes) supra maris aequor conlocatus. Montis adiacet dorso in Andibus super Vallem Urubamba in Peruvia, 80 km (50 milia passuum) ad septentrionem occidentemque urbis Cusco, et per quem Urubamba Fluvius praeterfluit. Plurimi archaeologi putant Machu Pikchu aedificatum esse perfugium et praesidium salutis pro Pachacuti (1438–1472), imperatore Incarum. Situs, saepe "Amissa Incarum Urbs" appellata, fortasse est notissimum mundi Incarum signum. Die 24 Iulii 1911 Machu Pikchu ab exploratore americano Hiram Bingham iterum inventa est.

Everybody says it's better to go early, but don't if you would like to avoid long lines! People line up for the bus since 4am, but at 8 lines are much shorter! It also goes for entrance and return bus

If you have the time and energy, climb Huayna Picchu to get a better view of MP. It's well worth the extra effort.

If you want a fairly easy but invigorating hike, do the Inka Bridge trail. The actual Inka Bridge requires holding onto a wire while crossing a narrow ledge, but the 15 min. hike features great views

Opt-in for the extra hike up to Montaña Machu Picchu. It's a burner of a hike (60-90mins) but well worth the view. Back a lunch if you're making the climb! Also bring a banana for the llamas. Trust.

I was looking for a mystical lifetime trip to Peru and this trip went beyond my imagination! Still worth the hike! One of the most breathtaking and mystical sites in the world.

One of the world wonders architecture. Amazing design and view. Worth all the walk, train & the way here. Make sure to visit it in the day season to have a good view of it.
