For example, all the famous pictures of Macchu Picchu are taken from behind that little hut you see about 50 feet above where the camera is.

We recently visited Peru — Machu Picchu for a week, then Tambopata (the Amazon) for a week.

There's plenty of space to do archaeological research, it's not like Mars is the size of Machu Picchu or something...

Dry season is May-Oct (not at all advisable to visit Machu Picchu in the wet season).

Everyone thinks of Machu Picchu but this bridge is pretty high up there on interesting things to see, and cross.

At Macchu Picchu they still allow tourists to climb all over the site.

If you went up and down Machu Picchu every day for years, I bet you'd perform like the porter.

There is very good documentary how Machu Picchu was made on youtube.

I can now (probably, not sure if this exists) don my Apple VR set and walk around Machu Picchu or the Sistine Chapel.

Yes and after going on a trip to Machu Picchu a few years ago, the locals don't seem to feel gravity quite the same way most of us do these days.

I had Machu Picchu at the top of my bucket list since childhood as I'm sure many do, but it was never at the top for some reason.

Machu Picchu in Peru is widely regarded as primarily a civil engineering effort.

And yes, wanting to be able to climb Machu Picchu without taking time off is both an "economic reason" AND a "material improvement in one's livelihood".

I think we're a bit too eager to throw around "sociopath." When I nod along to my boss' vacation story and ask him follow-up questions, I guess that also makes me a sociopath, because he's not a good storyteller and I'm not interested in Machu Picchu (this is a made up anecdote for illustrative purposes).

It's neither Turkish nor Thai for obvious reasons: - Thailand is in south-east Asia - Turks weren't around that area, not even close, until ~700 years Considering that the majority of asia minor was Greek for millenias before, calling this site "clearly Turkish" is like calling Machu Picchu "clearly Spanish"

Some have speculated the Incans did not create the monolithic blocks at Machu Picchu, but instead, only found them.

What's to prevent someone from allowing 3D printing of any landmark in the world like the Taj Mahal, Machu Picchu, Eiffel Tower or London Eye?

To continue this metaphor, a while back my girlfriend and I went to Machu Picchu.
