Getting to Machu Picchu is to enter a different dimension. A place where the mystic acquires its true meaning. Apparently built to belittle the man in the midst of a marvelous nature, it is said that the Inca Pachacutec, the ninth ruler of Tawantinsuyo, ordered the erection of Machu Picchu as a place of retreat, like a fortress that would prevent an eventual advance of the anti-people of threatening the Amazon rainforest to the Empire, or as a place dedicated to the worship of the sun, inhabited by real virgins acllas calls.
