The ruined city in Peru might be the most famous place in the country. As one of the new seven wonders of the world, this ruined city lives up to everything. A must for any visitor to the country. The city knows of incredible architecture and cleverness of construction you convince.

Photography Tips

For the sunrise, look not only at the ruined city, but also at the significant mountains around it, which had a special meaning for the construction of the city.
