[Machu Picchu Ruins | A mysterious World Heritage site known as the Sky City]

[Machu Picchu Ruins | Mysterious World Heritage Site Known as the Sky City] — A spectacular ruin where Inca wisdom and nature blend together, a moving experience that will be etched in your heart — 📍[Location] About 25 minutes by shuttle bus from Machu Picchu Village (Aguas Calientes) Ancient Inca city ruins located in the mountains at an altitude of about 2,430m 🕰[Admission time] Admission is time-based. You can choose between morning and afternoon (advance reservation required) Early morning tickets are very popular, so if possible, make a reservation online 1-2 months in advance! ⸻ ✨Recommended points ・A spectacular view also known as the "sky city". The panoramic view surrounded by mountains is overwhelming!・The sophisticated stonework and waterway system show the advanced level of the Inca civilization at that time. ・The Temple of the Sun and Intihuatana are places with strong religious significance, creating a mystical atmosphere. ・The sight of the alpacas walking leisurely is also soothing. ⸻ 🎒 Tips ・Water and snacks are prohibited in the ruins area, so it is best to do so in front of the entrance. ・Insect repellent and sun protection are essential (hat, long sleeves, sunscreen). ・There are many steep stairs and steps, so non-slip shoes and a backpack style that leaves both hands free are recommended. ・It is recommended to take a guided tour to gain a deeper understanding of the background of the ruins. ⸻ #MachuPicchu #WorldHeritage #Peru #AbsolutelyFreeTrip
