The Mystery that is Machu Picchu... |
Machu Picchu is without any doubt the most spectacular pre-Colombian monument in South America, attracting visitors not only because of its importance but also for the incredible beauty of the site. Machu Picchu still maintains its mystery: was it a fortress established to protect the Incas from invasions? Was it a religious capital or simply a place dedicated to the God Sun? Was it the last Inca capital? It is said that Manco Inca, the last Inca Ruler, took refuge at Machu Picchu when pursued by the Spaniards. The theory is quite feasible, especially in light of Machu Picchu's situation; it is located on the top of a mountain, and remains perfectly invisible from the valley. |
