Machu
Picchu is the lost city floating in a kingdom of clouds, a mysterious
settlement that the Incas built, high in the Andes Mountains of Peru,
deserted, and occupied, all in less than a century. For hundreds years
that city was hidden in the jungle. In 1911, Hiram Bingham led a
expedition to the Peruvian Andes. On a valley floor along the Urubamba
River, he met a villager who guided him up to ruins of the hidden city,
the only Incan site that had not been destroyed or looted during the
previous three centuries.Nice Places to Visit, Natural Entertainments, Nice Natures, Nice Ruins to Visit
