6 Reasons Why You’ll Love Machu Picchu

6 Reasons Why You’ll Love Machu Picchu

Machu Picchu, one of the Seven Wonders of the World, continues to fascinate visitors with its stunning beauty, mystical energy, and the incredible attractions that surround it. Whether you’ve visited before or are considering a second visit, here are 6 reasons to return and celebrate the anniversary of the scientific discovery of Machu Picchu by Hiram Bingham in 1911.

1. Its Imposing Beauty

Machu Picchu is located in a spectacular location, in the eastern part of the Andes Mountains, surrounded by green mountains that reflect the subtropical climate of the region. Its architecture and ingenious design continue to amaze all who visit it, and many travelers promise to return to relive that unique experience of seeing the Inca citadel for the first time. How about enjoying that breathtaking view once again?

2. The Inca Trail

If your first visit to Machu Picchu was by bus or train, it’s time to try something different! The Inca Trail is a 4-day, 3-night hiking adventure that follows ancient Inca routes for 35.45 kilometers. This hike takes you through high Andean and tropical landscapes, culminating at the Sun Gate, the direct entrance to Machu Picchu. It is one of the top five hiking trails in the world, and an experience that will deeply connect you with nature and Inca history.

3. The Energy that Emanates

Machu Picchu is known for its positive and “healing” energy. Surrounded by sacred mountains, or ‘Apus’, which the Incas revered, the site has a special mysticism that many visitors feel. Points such as the Sacred Rock and the Intiwatana are known to concentrate this energy. If on your first visit you didn’t have time to stop and feel this connection, why not return and experience the magic of Machu Picchu again?

4. The Impressive Sacred Valley

A crucial region during the Inca empire, the Sacred Valley is full of natural and cultural wonders. If you only passed through briefly, consider returning to explore it further. Activities such as rafting on the Vilcanota River, visiting the craft fairs of Písac, Ollantaytambo and Chinchero, or discovering the Inca agricultural laboratory of Moray will allow you to immerse yourself in the rich culture and history of the region.

5. The Inca Jungle

For adventure lovers, the Inca Jungle is the perfect option. This tour combines cycling, trekking, canoeing and ziplining through the Cusco landscapes until reaching Machu Picchu. If you have already reached the citadel on foot, by train or by bus, why not try this adrenaline-filled experience? It is an exciting way to rediscover Machu Picchu and explore the surrounding landscapes.

6. Connection with Cultural Heritage

Machu Picchu is more than just a tourist destination; it is a symbol of Peru’s cultural heritage. Each visit allows you to connect more deeply with the history and spirituality of the Incas. Returning to Machu Picchu is not just about reliving memories, but also deepening your understanding and appreciation of this incredible legacy.
