| Hidden in the Peruvian Andes, 50 miles north of Cuzco, lies one of the most spectacular archaelogical sites in the world. Machu Picchu was one of the many outposts of the Inca civilization. It was only rediscovered in 1911 by the American explorer, Hiram Bingham, who thought he had found the final defensive stand of the Incas who lost their empire to Francisco Pizarro in 1519. |
