Machu Picchu, the "lost city of the Incas," was not a true city, but rather a pilgrimage center symbolically connected to the Andean. Its also a pleasure palace. Machu Picchu was the ideal counterpart of the Island of Sun, a rocky islet in the southern part of Lake Titicaca. This place is Surrounded on three sides by the gorges of the Urubamba River (also called the Vilcanota River), and tucked between two massive mountain peak. Machu Picchu holds about 200 stone structures and probably has more than 750 people living here.
