Qosqo Ayllu

Reviewed By S1871UZluciem

This town is still as the Incas had played it out... the straight cobblestone streets with canals allowing for the water to run down the slope - and the houses' foundations that still date from the Inca empire. Enchanting.

Intihuatana Stone

Reviewed By Cavydad - Camarillo, United States

Get a knowledgeable guide! It is just so easy to get lost in the stonework and miss the context and details of Machu Picchu. Easy to walk by, but our guide stopped us to explain each and every nook and cranny of Machu Picchu. Consider this is a once in a lifetime experience.

Intipuncu

Reviewed By Am_et_Mat - Neuilly-sur-Seine, France

Forget the time slot for the Huayna Picchu or the Machu Picchu mountains and go to the Sun Gate aka Intipuncu. The path is easy, the views are just amazing and you can start visiting Machu Picchu by doing it. Ok, you may find the path crowded ... Machu Picchu is popular so take your time, take some breaks, hydrate & most of it enjoy the place!!

Pisac

Reviewed By rorysdad312 - Chicago, United States

We just visited yesterday afternoon (early October, Saturday, 2:30pm), and felt so fortunate to see these amazing ruins, with beautiful views, with very few other tourists! I felt a bit guilty for opting to take a taxi back to town rather than the long hike down, until it started to rain. Most of my pictures are on my old school camera, but here are the few iphone photos from my visit. My only complaint was that there were no onsite guides to hire. Not sure if this is never available, or too late in the day.

Llaqtapata

Ancient Inca village.

Reviewed By jgemza - Whitesboro, United States

Wonder of the world made centuries ago. It is hard to believe the Incas could buid such a fine structure that lasted over the years. The views were amazing just before the rain, visited during the rainy season. One must be in good physical condition to see all the sites, but is was worth it. A gem in Preu.

Roca Sagrada

Reviewed By 855BruceH - Brisbane, Australia

The Sacred Rock with its 3 meters of height marks the north-most point inside Machu Picchu. Perhaps the most significant fact: This area is the portal towards Wayna Picchu, a mountain the Inca probably revered at this site, thinking it contained one of the higher spirits.
