Discovering Machu Picchu
The ruins of Machu Picchu are one of the most mystical and enigmatic sites in the World. Machu Picchu stands 2,430m above sea-level, in an extraordinarily beautiful location high in the mist shrouded Andes.It was probably the most amazing urban creation of the Inca Empire at the height of its civilization. Thought to be a secret ceremonial city and completely invisible from lower levels, its giant walls and terraces, hide a Self contained network of palaces, baths, temples and some 150 houses.
The journey to the lofty heights of Machu Picchu can truly be a once in a lifetime experience.
