Machu Picchu is without any doubt one of the most beautiful places, and one of the Seven Wonders of the World. The ancient Inca city is famous for its dominant nature as well as for its architecture, not easy to replicate even with modern tools. Its peculiarity gives rise to several theories about its construction, making it one of the greatest mysteries of history.

To preserve the uniqueness of this world heritage, from 1st January 2019 the access rules have been modified by the Ministry of Culture of Cusco. First of all, visitors can't stay beyond 4 hours on the site. Visits are divided into two shifts: the first from 06:00 to 12:00; the second from 12:00 to 17:00. Even the Intiwatana pyramid, the Sun Temple and the Condor Temple have defined hours: the pyramid from 07:00 to 10:00; the Sun Temple from 10:00 to 13:00; the Condor Temple from 13:00 to 16:00. Finally, tickets have to be bought in advance, indicating the entry time.

The main goal is to regulate the increasing flow of tourists to the site.
