Machu Picchu is a 15th-century Inca site located on a ridge at 2,430 meters above sea level, overlooking the Sacred Valley. It is the most famous Inca site and was introduced to the world in 1911 by American historian Hiram Bingham. The Incas abandoned the city shortly before Spanish colonization, and because it was not looted, the ruins remain in very good condition. Perched on a dramatic ridge surrounded by steep cliffs and bordered on three sides by the Urubamba River, Machu Picchu is a remarkable place worth visiting.
Machu Picchu was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1983 and was chosen as one of the New Seven Wonders of the World in 2007.
