Machu Picchu and the Peruvian Amazon
Machu Picchu in the World’s Ultimate Bucket List for 2018
First, everybody around the world already knows the Inca citadel at the heights of the Urubamba River Valley, near Cusco City. It was originally built as a luxury retreat and religious site for the Inca elite. There they got away from everything, totally relaxed body and mind, enjoyed the warm weather, took key political decisions and conducted religious rituals for spiritual development. The Spanish conquerors that arrived in 1532 never managed to find the citadel, which remained known only to local farmers until American scholar and explorer Hiram Bingham got there in 1911 and made the Inca retreat known for the world. Currently it is the top destination in Latin America for all kinds of travelers: classic, group, adventurous and so on.
