im glad i saw this video. it has officially uninfluenced me to go to maccu picchu. Had no idea this place became so mainstream. Anyone that knows of another beautiful attraction that is far less attainable, please let me know.
@iamaj If you do it right it can be amazing. Sucks that there are friggin' busses that drive right to the top. Did a three day hike to get there and it was awesome, finished the next morning with a hike to the top. I would still go, it's incredible when you get up there. If you ever get a chance, go see the Uyuni salt flats in souther Bolivia, and I can also recommend as much of Patagonia as you can possibly see. All amazing.

@eKuL1995 my english is not very good, but welcome to Peru, my friend. I went in september, 2001. Cuzco and Machu Picchu are beautiful, the best. Greetings from Lima.
@mewrongway Yes I can imagine what Bingham saw, when he arrived there in 1911 the site was completely overgrown by jungle. Most of the walls and buildings were in ruins. Machu Picchu as we see it today has been mostly rebuilt stone by stone by archeologists, it didn't look anything like what you see in this video when Hiram Bingham first arrived there. It is a great place to visit, if you go you will never forget it. There are other great places to see in Peru too.
Machu Picchu is so beautiful! I'm totally proud of that!.
Soon I'll travel with my classmates to any place of Peru because we are in the last year of the high school, and the destiny was in a moment Cuzco, but I don't know what the hell my classmates just was thinking that Machu Picchu is just a pure "stone" and nothing more.
I was very dissapointed of them until today, they aren't magic lover's, and saddly, we traveled to another place more near from Lima.
@AngelMaldonadoSME ...Another place near from Lima too, but nothing compared with Cuzco!.
And sorry them people (my classmates), I'm totally proud too that people from another places in the world arrive to Peru, specially for Machu Picchu and just.... THEY'RE JUST SCHOCKED ABOUT HOW MAGIC IS MACHU PICCHU!... and my classmates (been borning in Peru) just don't see more, just don't see the magic!.
@k3digichaos You wrote that because you aren't there, and isn't just a simple place to visit like you tried to explain, is really more than this, if you'll really are breathing, walking, watching, buying, eating and more things in Cuzco, you'll understand Machu Picchu and many more beautiful places around Peru is like the Freddie Mercury or Michael Jackson's voices... SUPER AMAZING!.
In addition to the further research finding that Machu Picchu was actually a royal estate, this speaker went from it being a "city" to a "town" to a "village" in just 5 minutes of talking. And Hiram Bingham technically found it under the jungle, but it wasn't really 'hidden' as noted in the other comment, though he came here in 1911 not 1905 I believe.
Pues veo un comentario que Machupicchu esta en territorio Ecuatoriano, bueno yo quiero y respeto mucho a Ecuador, pero Machupicchu se encuentra ubicado en la Ciudad de Cusco que pertenece a la Republica de Peru.
Correction: Hiram Bingham did not DISCOVER this site, nor was it news that it is Incan. Let credit go where it is deserved, with the Peruvian people. Many indigenous groups in Peru knew Machu Picchu existed. The site was never forgotten. The speaker also appears to have trekked on the expensive train, $500 to ride, from what I can tell. I took the "local" train, as do most tourists who aren't millionaires or aren't sponsored by whomever. Expect significant delays on the train.

I enjoyed every moment in this magnificent city. Few things as buses and entance fees changed since video was made. We prefered to catch a train in Ollantaytambo and saving few bucks.
I tink that no one* can build a piramid ,I mean mayan priamide's and egypt piramide's.Let's tink how they do it? Chineese tryed to do one and they can't.And let face it hwo do they do it 4000 year's ago? How? In egypt piramides is draw on walls something coming from the sky.Let's tink...entrance in egypt piramides and the path to go inside is small...how do they do it so perfect?;witouth light?;ok they use torch?Let's figure out the world...cuz we don't know even 10% about this...
´´macchu picchu é a cidade dos meus sonhos,o chão q qro tocar nem q seja no ultimo dia da minha vida.........sua arquitetura,sua beleza natural,a cultura de seus antigos moradores.................isso tudo me fascina!``
Absolutely amazing and wonderous. I would love to see Machu Picchu before I get too old! How much would that trip cost from Las Vegas, Nevada? Hmmmmm . . . You did an awesome job on this video!!! Thanks for sharing
@czsloopy hey, I am going for the first time from San Francisco in January 2011, I got air tikts for less then U$900. and u can see other fees @ go2peru.com ; )
El peru es una gran mierda alla van los turistas extrajeros al machupichu un monton de piedras y por fuerza de la costumbre todos dicen que es lindisimo, para los incas quizas sea lindisimo para los extranjeros solo piedras agolpadas son como moscas en una gran plasta tambien dicen que esta rica y es solo mierdaaa
@dolarcito1 MAPUCHE=CHOLO COLOR CACA CUANDO TUS ANTEPASADOS COMIAN TIERRA LOS MIOS VIVIAN EN PALACIOS DE PEDRA Y COMIAN MAJARES NO TIENES CULTURA ERES COMO DIJO PACHACUTEC INDIOS MAPUCHES CUANDO LOS CONQUISTO RESPETA SI NO ENTIENDES Y DIRIGITE AL PERUANO COMO ! CRIOLLO PERUANO O PERUANO INKA , DEPENDIENTES DE MIERDA.. DISCULPEN ALOS DEMAS PERO ALGUIEN TENIA Q DERCILES A LOS CHILENOS Q DESPIERTEN DE SU SUEÑO.....
@dolarcito1 Obviamente no, sino no seria una de las maravillas del mundo y con ese criterio entonces las piramides en egipto serian la misma porqueria, con eso dicho queda bien claro que lo que dices no representa el pensar de la gene en general.
@dolarcito1 Hazle un favor al mundo y a la pobre perra de tu madre y metete un tiro lastima q tu madre haya procreado un animal como tu, engendro de mierda, tal vez un burro se comio a tu madre, hijo de la gran puta!
The residents of Machu Picchu, were giants. with red hair and beards. Just like the Giants described in the Bible. Legend said they left back to the heavens.
History is all messed up, there are many different theories and opinions of macchu picchu like many believed it to be built for the inca emperor Pachacuti.
Now I'm hearing conflicting reports of Machu-Picchu. A previous video stated that it was built by the Incas to get away from Spanish conquest, now it's being said that Machu-Picchu was abandoned before the Spanish arrived. Where is this guy getting his facts from?
At 8,000 feet, the Iti Wantana provided line of sight to four mountain Gods in four cardinal direction and was a high point above the holy river. The direction North pointed to the heavens for the Mayan. What direction is the Sacred Rock sketch against the mountain.
We contiunue to marvel at the breathtaking locale and mystery surrounding the Lost City of the Inca : Machu Picchu. If Hiram Bingham was still around today he would have loved your YouTube video...Thanks Dennis!
@destroyer044 the best culture is really an opinion, The Mayans left written history on stele's and were just as impressive in there architecture. If u really want to be impressed Puma punku boggles the mind on how in the world were these ruins accomplished back in prehistoric times. 200 ton granite and diorite stones cut to precision to interlock. Only thing known to man that can cut diorite is diamond tip tools.
I can't wait to go there. One of my goals in life is to visit as many ancient places as possible. I think it's my duty and responsibility as a human to visit the homes of my ancestors, wherever they may have resided thousands of years ago.
It must have taken them for a long time to hual those rocks and stones up the moutain and carve them. It seems to me like by the time they were done that the Spanish invaded (I know the time was large in between)
Que maravillas.....orgulloso de ser 100% Peruano. Pena que nunca falta un chileno maleducado ignorante en estos videos. Hermanos peruanos no les hagan caso......a palabras NECIAS oidos sordos.
Its only 8,000 ft above sea level. So within 12 hours most folks acclimatize. Older folks may take 1-2 days. For little babies its a non stop headache since they havent developed 100%. Caffeine pills are given for altitude issues.

@shishishi0000 JAJAJAJAJAJAJJA sabes me he dado cuenta con los años y los comentarios de toda la gente del mundo .q eso solo piensan algunos latinos envidiosos y acomplejados .por q de ni un eruopeo o norteamericano,asiatico,oceanico,piensa asi cuando llega al PERU ya q aca viene gente de todo el mundo.un saludo a todos los hermanos latinos.
@Garudanime Or another explanation; a race of super smart kitties from the future! That's about as likely as saying ET wanted a nice garden terrace. Early man (not that this was made really that long ago) could accomplish quite a lot.
Imagine being a pre-Columbian Conquistador centuries ago. You arrive and take in Sacsayhuaman and other jaw dropping areas. You then realize you're clearly dealing with a people that much greater than yourself. How could one defeat the occupied areas and take their natural recourses? Easy, arrive carrying swine flu and all other sorts of viruses the Western Hemisphere had never see. NOT LOL, all that said, The Incas, Mayans, Aztecs, Toltecs, and countless others were truly amazing people!
me gusta todo lo que hace senor denniscallan lo unico que debe hacer es renovar el video porque no se ve bien lo que usted quiere dar conoser porque las toma del video es malo no pefrmite ver lo que realmente uiere dar a conoser gracias
amigo chileno: mejor deja de hablar mal de Machu Picchu porque no tienes fundamentos ya que tu pais no tiene nada que envidiar. Ustedes nos envidian a nosotros porque tenemos todo. Lastima que ustedes que estan POR DEBAJO de los peruanos los insulten ya que su pais no tiene nada bueno.
Excellent, informative, concise presentation - so well done in fact, I no longer feel the need to go there in person. Thanks for taking me on the trip for free!
what a shame, these big companies using machu picchu to make money, coming in with their buses and trains and turn styles to try and sqeeze every penny out of the place.
negros de mierda peruanos hijos de puta este videome parece una cagada y Peru me parece una selva que no iria nunca porque esta llena de animales salvaje insectos venenosos y una gente chiquitita , negrita , que no se le entinde nada y se los conoce com ############################
The ruins of Machu Picchu, rediscovered in 1911 by Yale archaeologist Hiram Bingham, are one of the most beautiful and enigmatic ancient sites in the world.
I think the guy doing the documentary got the date wrong.
fuckin old fat people the dont deserve to go there they should walk to get up there lazy fat bitches thats why it was build up there so it was hard to get to.i hope te bus gose over the edge old fat fags lol
eres muy inmaduro, eso hay en todo pais, ademas ese no es el tema del video, no se porque tiendes a dar opiniones, sobre tu propio pais , que no van al tema
wow, i'd love to visit this site! its so sad how the spanish came and wiped out the inca civilisation, imagine what they would have acheieved, if they were left alone for just another 100 yrs!! ??
me chupan un huevo los chilenos envidiosos, acaso nosotros vamos a sus videos para dar mala onda, nosotros no lo hacems porque nos gusta nuestro pais y no estamos envidioso, aguante peru
the white man didn't discover the site! the white man didn't determine that it was an Inca estate! stop fucking lying like that. the white man was the first to exploit it and tell all the plunderers in amerikkka about it. they probably thought there was a treasure in there.
Para viajar a Machu Pichu las empresas de turismo mienten mucho. Yo estuve hace poco por ahi y no pude llegar porque en la zona con mucha frecuencia los indios bloquean las carreteras, las empresas turisticas no avisan nada, y cuando uno llega al Peru y a la zona no se puede viajar siempre hay bloqque de carreteras por la zona que une Cuzco con Bolivia. Ya no viajen al Peru !!
hey,frannkb!you're an idiot!so why didn't you make sure through your travel agent that this would not happen while you were in peru?it is not fair to judge this wonderful and magnificent country the way you do on account of your stupidity!get out of here,asshole!hijo de puta!
wow..my wife and i had our honeymoon in machu picchu last february..and that was the most amazing and rewarding thing i'd ever done..you guys have to check it out..it's a once-in-a-lifetime experience you'll never forget..and once you're up there,try conquering wayna picchu as well, to complete the journey..it's like being on top of the world..thanks for posting this..viva el peru!
woow, I really learned a lot about Machupichu from this video, thanks to the person who posted this video. This is one of the sites that I would like to visit before I die.
In-freaking incredible!! 8000 feet above sea level!? No wonder the mayan calander was so accurate, they probably could see everything from that elevation!!
YO SE QUE ALGUN DIA VOY A CUMPLIR UNOS DE MIS MAYORES SUEÑOS, QUE ES CONOCER MACCHU PICCHU,, ESPERAMEEE PERUUUUU :D

@Garudanime Or another explanation; a race of super smart kitties from the future! That's about as likely as saying ET wanted a nice garden terrace. Early man (not that this was made really that long ago) could accomplish quite a lot.

Imagine being a pre-Columbian Conquistador centuries ago. You arrive and take in Sacsayhuaman and other jaw dropping areas. You then realize you're clearly dealing with a people that much greater than yourself. How could one defeat the occupied areas and take their natural recourses? Easy, arrive carrying swine flu and all other sorts of viruses the Western Hemisphere had never see. NOT LOL, all that said, The Incas, Mayans, Aztecs, Toltecs, and countless others were truly amazing people!

amigo chileno: mejor deja de hablar mal de Machu Picchu porque no tienes fundamentos ya que tu pais no tiene nada que envidiar. Ustedes nos envidian a nosotros porque tenemos todo. Lastima que ustedes que estan POR DEBAJO de los peruanos los insulten ya que su pais no tiene nada bueno.

the white man didn't discover the site! the white man didn't determine that it was an Inca estate! stop fucking lying like that. the white man was the first to exploit it and tell all the plunderers in amerikkka about it. they probably thought there was a treasure in there.

Cuidado !!!!
Para viajar a Machu Pichu las empresas de turismo mienten mucho. Yo estuve hace poco por ahi y no pude llegar porque en la zona con mucha frecuencia los indios bloquean las carreteras, las empresas turisticas no avisan nada, y cuando uno llega al Peru y a la zona no se puede viajar siempre hay bloqque de carreteras por la zona que une Cuzco con Bolivia. Ya no viajen al Peru !!
