M A C H U P I C C H U !!

Today I have seen my first world wonder!

I woke up at 5:30 and Adrian was still in the hostel, which was not planned. It rained till 5:30, so he stayed longer there. Also some bad weather scam from Aida about clouds was already in the WhatsApp group. The morning news could be better😂

So after breakfast I catched up with Aida and Quentin and we went a 1 1/2h steep way up Machu Pitchu. (A bus one way would be 12€, so we decided to hike both ways).

After arriving at 7:15 I clarified to get a guide and joined Walleys group at 8:00.

What should I say? The guide information were super interesting and Machu Pitchu was amazing. Because the Spain did not found that place, it is mostly in that condition the Inca left it.

We had a tour of 2 1/2h and I super enjoyed it. After that I went down with Quentin (+Aida and a Swedish girl) to hydro electrica, where we we had lunch. Unfortunately we were a little late, so we not catched the bus, but another one was driving.

But they repair the streets from 3-6, so we got 2h stuck on the road and I went home at 24:00. after a hot shower, I went to bed.

I really enjoyed every minute up there and to see see the Inca 180 Inca buildings there was super amazing.

Some information about Machu Pitchu:

- Spiritual, university for Incas, special place for richer Incas
- Houses called colca and at their time they had a roof build of wood, bamboo and llama haul, which needed to be rebuild every 4-5 years
- there was an entrance from the Inca trail
- it’s 132 Kilometer away from Cusco
- it was builded around 1445 till 1542 and was not finished (big stones show that, that they wanted to build more of it), because then the Spain came.
-The 9th (of 16) Inca King began it and around 500 people lived there
- they had a farm and a Urban place there
- Why there?: water+ stones + clima for farming
- 1911 found again, but with a lot of vegetation & US guy came back 1912
-US gave back less stuff after investigation and no gold
- Small, young, big mountain are there. You could go to the small mountain for a better overview, but more expensive and need to book 3-4 month in advance.
