You would be in Peru.
I would say yes you pay to see it.
Machu Picchu has been placed on the world heritage list because it is a very cultural place that the people of the area would like to reserve
No. Lima is desert, and there are no mosquitoes in a desert. Cuzco and Machu Picchu are in the Andes Mountains, second only to the Himalayas in altitude. No mosquitoes there either. The only place in Peru where you would be concerned about yellow fever would be east of the Andes in the Amazonas.
Synonyms for the word apprehensive: anxious, fearful, afraid, alarmed, concerned, doubtful,fright, in a cold sweat, in a sweat, jittery, jumpy, mistrustful, running scared, scaredy-cat, shaky*, stiff, suspicious, troubled, uncertain, uneasy, uptight, weak, worried, worried sick
Since the trail up to Machu Picchu is a long 30 mile hike, you want to be sure that you are physically fit for the climb. Get in aerobics work outs everyday, and focus on your legs and core. These are the main muscle groups your body will be using. It is good to take small hikes and carry the gear you will be taking with you. This way you will be more used to the weight of your pack.
I would like to know this as well , the place is PERFECT for farmers and sutch! superb place , why dont people restore it and move in there! I wanna go live there!
Cost can vary depending on what mode of transportation is preferred. Most likely the season also dictates the prices but on average i would say at least a thousand.
There are varied theories about the fate of Machu Picchu, but no definitive answer. It was once held that it was the final battleground between the Inca and the Spanish, but this has since been disproven. Another theory was that it was a temple for the Virgins of the Sea and the virgins who attended the temple simply died out. Again, disproven, since archeological digs have uncovered the skeletons of men as well as women there and this would not have been the case at a temple of this type. It's more likely Macchu Picchu was a royal retreat than a temple. Some Cosmologists believe the superior technology and abilities of the Inca attest to alien visitation and that Macchu Picchu was built by them. Once they had completed their tasks there, they simply went back to where they came from.
Machu Piccu is in Peru and is the lost city of Inca the incas would have lived there and everyone thought it was so amazing they voted it a modern wonder of the world
"It is in Peru South America and I would assume that it is a nice place to visit. It is a sacred ancient site that are the remains of an ancient Incan civilization so if archaeology floats your boat, you will find it very nice indeed."
Safest location is hard to determine but the safest would probably be Lima, Cusco, Machu Picchu, Lake Titicaca, and Nasca as they are popular tourist destinations. Try to stay in main tourist sections of the cities. In Lima try to stay in the area of Miraflores.
