What countrie is Machu Picchu in?
Machu Picchu is located in Peru, South America. The name Machu Picchu is a Quechua term meaning "Old Peak." It is a pre-Columbian Inca historic site. The city is thought to have been built starting around 1400, but fell into disuse as an official site before the arrival of the conquistadors in the 1520s. As such, it was spared from looting by the Spanish.
Are there any threats to the preservation of machu picchu?
Peru has no restrictions currently on the amount of visitors that can enter Machu Picchu daily. While it has been made a National Heritage site, tens of thousands of tourists enter daily and this does damage to the integrity of the ruin site.
The society in Machu Picchu probably died from?
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.
What is the purpose of Machu Picchu?
There were disputes about its purpose but the general concensus is that it was a royal retreat for the Incan king Pachacuti. It was not a "Lost City". The population was less than a thousand and it could have been found by the Spanish if they had gone in that direction.
What does the Inca Trail hike include?
The Inca Trail is Peru's best known hike, combining a stunning mix of Inca ruins, mountain scenery, lush cloud-forest and rich subtropical jungle. Over 250 species of orchid have been counted in the Machu Picchu Historic Sanctuary, as well as numerous birds such as hummingbirds, waterfowl and the majestic Andean Condor. The star of the Sanctuary is the spectacled bear - a shy, herbivorous animal that is extremely rare and close to extinction. Also is a magnificent, well preserved Trail route which connects Machu Picchu with what once were other regions of the Inca Empire, and today it is one of the world's most popular treks. This four-day walk goes from the highlands of 4,200mts and down through the cloud forests to finally arrive at Machu Picchu - 2,380mts. There are many trails built by Incas in Peru, but there is one Inca Trail-the one that was the Incas "Royal highway" to Machu Picchu. Hiram Bingham, discoverer of Machu Picchu in 1911, found the trail in 1915. The highway was traced and explored in more details in 1942 by the Viking Expedition with Paul Fejos 1941.
