Travel Article 4: Machu Picchu, Peru Part 6
About Machu Picchu:
Machu Picchu sits above dense rainforests, and is one of the world's unique sanctuaries affording great beauty, harmony, and balance. The ruins of Machu Picchu cover an area of 18sq Km (5sq miles), with the Urubamba Canyon and river stretching across some 400 meters below. The name Machu Picchu actually means 'old peak'. The smaller Huayna Picchu peak is often seen in photographs of the ancient city and this, literally translated, simply means 'young peak'.
