Mysterious Machu Picchu, the lost city of the Incas

🌄When the morning mist fills the mountains, climb over the mountains and start your journey, pass through the broken walls, and crawl through the small holes. When you see the light, all the hardships of getting up early are worth it. 🌟"At first it was narrow, only passable by one person, but after walking a few dozen steps, it suddenly opened up." This is a true portrayal of Machu Picchu. In Inca, it means "old mountain," and it was the "summer palace" of the Inca emperor of Cusco. The layout is ingenious and reasonable, divided into agricultural areas, ordinary residential areas, and mountain tops. The agricultural area has terraces planted with tropical crops; the mountainside has workshops and schools; the mountain top is the temple and the royal residence, and the spring water flows down the waterway to every household. 🤩The Temple of the Sun is the most amazing. Two windows face the gap in the opposite mountain. The sun rises from different gaps on the summer solstice and winter solstice, and the sunlight shines into the temple. At other times, the sun moves between the two windows to guide agricultural production. It's so interesting. 🐪This place is rich in alpacas, and Machu Picchu raises many llamas. Its Chinese translation is diverse. The people of Machu Picchu make full use of it. Now they raise 60 llamas just to clear the weeds on the terraces. They are very photogenic. 😜At the end of the trip, the guide said that INCA is the emperor, KOLA is the butt, and the Peruvian special drink is called King's Ass, which is hilarious. 🏔Next to Machu Picchu is Huayna Picchu, which means "Young mountain." Some of the stone roads are steeper than Mount Hua, and you can overlook the whole town from the top of the peak. 🌞When you go down the mountain, the morning mist dissipates, the sun shines directly, and the tourists are bustling. The mysterious veil fades away, but the charm is imprinted in your heart.
