Machu Picchu
So on the 4th day of the trip we finally made it to the highlight of the trip, Machu Picchu! It was an absolutely spectacular sight! It started of completely foggy to the point where you couldn't see anything but soon after we got there it cleared up and we were treated to this moody and wonderful shot.
Machu Picchu is actually the name of the mountain that this archelogical sight sits on. The original name the Incans gave it is lost. It is not a city where people inhabit contrary to popular belief. It is a ceremonial place where people travel to from across the Incan empire. There are living quarters where families live when travelling but are not permenant living quarters.
