Why is Machupicchu so fascinating? Part of the fascination felt by visitors who discover the scenery of MachuPicchu is due to the lack of accurate information about the origin of the place and why the Inca decided to occupy and settle the area. One’s imagination can wander freely among the walls and ancient structures and gaze at the hot, humid, surroundings extending toward lush sub tropical forests. http://ping.fm/GvgQY
