Take a day to explore the Incan Citadel of Machu Picchu.
Leaving from Ollantaytambo heading towards Aguas Calientes; this is a scenic train journey which gives you the perspective around which this site is built.
Machu Picchu is a 15th-century Incan citadel; located on a ridge between the Huayna Picchu and Machu Picchu mountains in Peru. It sits 7,970 feet (2,430 meters) above sea level on the eastern slope of the Andes and overlooks the Urubamba River hundreds of feet below.
The excellent preservation of this site; the quality of architecture; and the breath-taking mountain vista it occupies has made Machu Picchu one of the most famous archaeological sites in the world today. Thus; it has recently been incorporated as one of the seven wonders of the world.
The site covers 80,000 acres (32,500 hectares). Hence; terraced fields on the edge of the site were once used for growing crops, likely maize and potatoes.
Thus; there are different trains you can take, either the Expedition or Vistadome train, there is also the Hiram Binghamfor a more luxurious trip in. All trains leave leave from just outside Cusco, Poroy station, or you can travel into Aguas Calientes from Ollantaytambo. Exploring inside Machu Picchu is usually a full day; we recommend being prepared with tickets before you arrive to make the most of your day there.
