This is the hike down from Wyana picchu, and yes it was that steep. It was a really hard hike because it was steep and the elevation was high!

This is the side of Macchu picchu where the incas would farm. The irrigation system is still working, it was amazing!
This is the river that is at the bottom of the mountain.


This is the spot where the inca king would come for inspiration. It was amazing because when you would stand in that spot, everything went quiet and you could feel a breeze from the valley below.



This is the temple of the 3 windows. Its just mind boggeling how much work these people did with carving and hauling these stones. Our tour guide said that the average life expectancy of the incas was 40 years, and its no wonder because they worked themselves to death!
