One of the New Seven Wonders of the World, Machu Picchu is an attraction not to be missed. "The Lost Incan City" as it's sometimes referred to is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most important archaeological sites in the Americas.

Situated on a mountain ridge north west of Cusco and 2,400 meters above sea level. Machu Picchu is a marvel of human engineering and testament to advanced level of Incan Science and culture.
