Machu Picchu: the Lost City of the Incas

An unforgettable day! Not just because I got to see one of the new Wonders of the World, but because I shared this incredible experience with a dear friend 👯‍♀️

Nath and I arrived at Machu Picchu early in the morning with our group, and initially, the weather wasn't promising. After four days of hiking to get there, the cloudy sky wasn't what we expected. Fortunately, slowly but surely, a beautiful blue sky and radiant sun emerged, making the day truly memorable. ☀️

As the morning went by, we were thrilled walking among magnificent structures which seemed unreal on that mountainside. Our awe reached new heights when we got to the starting point of the climb to Huayna Picchu. ⛰️

It took us 45 minutes to go up the "death stairs", but the breathtaking views made it all worthwhile!

On our way back, Nath suggested the steep trek down to Aguas Calientes. That's when the weather changed and we got caught in a bit of rain. I wasn’t thrilled going downhill but it was a small price to pay for the amazing day we enjoyed and will forever remember.

Gracias Pachamama! 🙏Baca selengkapnya
