Machu Picchu

Machu Picchu is a very ancient village built on a mountain in Peru.

It took many years to build MachuPicchu, 1438 to 1532.

Machu Picchu was ordered built by Emporor Pachacutec.

Scientists think Machu Picchu was abandoned by the Incas because of smallpox disease.

This amazing settlement lies halfway up the Andes Plateu above the Urubamba River.

After the Spanish defeated the Incan Emporor the village of Machu Picchu remained lost for over three centuries.

Machu Picchu had palaces for the royalty to entertain their guests.

Macu Picchu’s Archeological importance was first recognized in 1911.
