Nestled among the dramatic landscapes of the Andres Mountains sits Machu Picchu - a 15th-century Inca citadel considered one of the greatest artistic and architectural achievements in history.  This ancient wonder was built during the mid 15th century, but was not known to the outside world until its re-discovery in 1912. 

A symbol of the Inca heritage, the “Lost City on the Incas” is a testament to the remarkable achievements of ancient civilizations. The complex sits at almost 8,000 feet upon a mountain ridge in the Sacred Valley of Peru and is widely believed to be a significant religious and ceremonial site for the Incas, as well as a royal estate for Pachacuti, a past emperor. As UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the New Seven Wonders of the World , Machu Picchu is a must-visit for any world traveler.
