Machu Picchu, the world's most popular travel destination! ⛰️

#Overseas travel A world travel destination, ⛰️Machu Picchu⛰️ Machu Picchu, the ruins of the ancient Incan civilization located in the Andes Mountains of Peru. It is a city made of stone at 2400m above sea level! You can fully experience the beauty of the mountainous terrain seen from high places, and the mystery of the ruins where civilizations in history live and breathe. ✔️How to get there, tips Do you feel that the road to Machu Picchu is long and difficult? Don't worry! It's not difficult at all. It's just a little bit inconvenient..! There are many transportation options from Cusco, Peru to 'Agua Caliente', the town where Machu Picchu is located. However.. I strongly recommend the train.. The shuttle bus is cheap, but the bathrooms are really bad during the trip ㅠㅠ The mountain train is a little expensive, but it's clean and fast. There are buses that go up to Machu Picchu several times a day from Aguas Calientes. If possible, I recommend staying overnight in the area and going for a day! It takes quite a while just to get from Cusco to Aguas Calientes. ✔️Things not to be missed Also, there is a place at the entrance to Machu Picchu where you can get your passport stamped. ㅎㅎ It will be a long-lasting memory, so definitely get it stamped. It's free! If you walk around freely, you may meet wild llamas on the slopes. Machu Picchu, a world-famous travel destination, I recommend you visit it at least once by referring to this article.🥰 #Machu Picchu #Machu Picchu Trekking

Here's how I made the most of my adventure through Peru’s magic cities — Cusco, Lima, Machu Picchu, and Rainbow Mountain! This trip was packed with jaw-dropping history, wild nature, and yes, lots of furry alpaca encounters 🦙✨ Top Spots to Visit: 1. Cusco: The heart of the Inca empire! Wander the Plaza de Armas (Calle Triunfo, open 24/7), snap pics at the San Blas neighborhood, and don’t miss the lively local markets. 2. Lima: Hit up Miraflores (Parque Kennedy, Av. Diagonal, open late) for ocean views and incredible ceviche joints (try La Mar, Av. La Mar 770). The historic center (Plaza Mayor) shines with colonial charm. 3. Machu Picchu: Book your ticket ahead via trip.com and grab the early shuttle from Aguas Calientes town (first bus leaves 5:30am). The climb is worth every sweaty step—don’t rush through, bring water and sunscreen! 4. Rainbow Mountain: Arrive early (Vinicunca, opening around 5am) to beat the crowds and catch the rainbow peaks at sunrise. Dress warm, altitude here is no joke! Pro tips from the trip: Don’t leave without alpaca time—local herders let you play (and snap selfies!) with their fluffy pals in Cusco’s squares. Altitude can hit hard, so acclimate for a day or two in Cusco and drink coca tea. Book Machu Picchu tickets weeks ahead for peace of mind. And for Rainbow Mountain, consider a guided tour—unpredictable weather and remote roads mean pro drivers = less stress. Getting around: Domestic flights or comfy buses (like Cruz del Sur) are best between Lima, Cusco, and surrounding areas. In cities, grab taxis via phone apps or walk central neighborhoods. Food recs: Try street churros in Cusco, munch on aji de gallina in Lima, and snack on choclo con queso (corn with cheese) on your Machu Picchu hike. Key tips: Cash is king in markets. Weather flips fast, pack layers and rain gear. Entrance tickets for Machu Picchu must match ID/passport info! #PeruAdventure #MachuPicchuMagic #CuscoDays #LimaEats #RainbowMountain
