Located in southern Peru,
this fascinating city lies on top of a mountain that’s only accessible
by train or 4-day trek. It was an important cultural center for the Inca
civilization, but was abandoned when the Spanish came. It is famously
referred to as the “Lost City of the Incas.” The location was made a
UNESCO World Heritage site in 1983. It was also named one of the New
Seven Wonders of the World in 2007. Concerns over growing numbers of
tourists have led to limitations on how many people can enter the site,
though only by a fraction of what is necessary. Hopefully they will
limit it even more so this site lasts for hundreds of years more.Located in southern Peru,
