The Incas built Machu Picchu. Machu Picchu was built by the Incan Civilization around 1450 in the jungle and mountains near Cusco, Peru. Machu Picchu is one of The Seven Wonders of the World. For more information about Machu Picchu, see the Related Link listed below.
On average, Machu Picchu gets 29200 visitors a year, so divide that by 365 and get 80. So it gets 80 visitors a year. This actually helped me with my school project so thank you for posting this question.
how Peru is so poor then their houses wouldn't be as good as American houses
Nobody knows for sure, though it is likely as the architecture (stonework) is Inca.
Machu Picchu is well known because it was built by human hands for so many years, by a very advanced and also almost unknown civilization, and it was sitting in silence at the top of the world for at least 1000 years. Now is that cool or what? Machu Picchu is one of The Seven Wonders of the World, Machu Picchu is in Cusco Peru and is beautiful and sacred, you can visit Machu Picchu, SacsayHuaman, Choquequirao, Ollantaytambo, sacred Valley by Inca Trail or train.
It's believed that Machu Pichu is so high up because of the centre of the Incan's religion - The Sun. People think that Machu Pichu is a religious city, and was build at such an elevation to get closer to said god.
Machu Picchu is near the equator, so it is warm year-round. The temperature usually stays within the 20˚C range. However, there is a very wet season, occurring from November until April, in which it pours. However, there is a dry season as well, which occurs from May until October.
It is the only site of Inca culture that remains relatively intact. It is also important in the way of being one of the 7 wonders of the world!!
Nothing tore it down. Its buildings were built with strong stone inlays, and they were able to be restored by workers in the recent years. The workers are still restoring it to this day.
Machu Piccu is in Peru and is the lost city of Inca the incas would have lived there and everyone thought it was so amazing they voted it a modern wonder of the world
