Ancient fortress city of the Incas in the Andes Mountains, south-central Peru. Perched near Cuzco in a narrow saddle between two sharp peaks, at an elevation of 7,710 ft (2,350 m), it escaped detection by the Spaniards, and its existence was made known only in 1911 by U.S. explorer Hiram Bingham. One of the few pre-Columbian urban centres found nearly intact, it is about 5 sq mi (13 sq km) in area and includes a temple and a citadel.

Sexy Saria,

Machu Picchu, old peak in Quechua (the language Incas spoke and still spoken by millions in Peru), is a beautiful fortress/citadel located in the Andes. The fortress/citadel with its huge blocks of stones is located on the top a mountain. Viewed from the higher top of Huayna Picchu, the fortress/citadel looks magnificent, to say the least.

How the builders moved and placed enormous blocks of stones is a mystery .The builders (whom most believe were the Incas) did not leave any written records because they did not use writing.

I have been there once and look forward to coming back soon.
