The ruins of the most famous of all Inca ruins. Machu Picchu seem to be in between two mountain peaks and is often shrouded in fog. The ruins are not visible from the Urubamba Valley below, this place was built by the Incas without at all using the wheel.
Machu Picchu was built around the 15th century, but this place was not recorded by the Spanish Conquistador, who turned out to destroy the place in 1530. This place is also still unknown development goals, even though many signs that the place has many centers of worship.
Until now the various archeologists continue to search for evidence of the purpose built venue, because the Incas did not leave a writing system, then there is no written reports about the place.
