Machu Picchu ("Old Mountain" in Quechua language, often called "the lost Inca City") is a location of pre-Columbian Inca ruins located in the mountains at an altitude of about 2350 m. above sea level. Is above the Urubamba Valley in Peru, about 70 km northwest of Cusco. It is a symbol of the most famous Incan Empire. Built in about 1450, but abandoned a hundred years later, when the Spaniards had conquered the Incan Empire.
