I you would like to explore the beauties of South America, it might be difficult to decide where to go first. Machu Picchu Iguazu Falls Tours can take up to two weeks. Taking one of these exciting, educational and breath-taking tours might be the perfect solution for any adventurous individual.
Surrounded by subtropical rain forest, with over two thousand different vascular plants, Iguazu Falls are made up of numerous breath-taking cascades. The waterfall is semicircular, eighty meters high and almost three kilometers wide. This is certainly one of the most spectacular waterfalls not only in South America, but in the world.
The Fall is formed by Iguazu River, spanning the border between Brazil and Argentina. On he south, there are National reserves and the National park of Argentina, and the north side belongs to Brazil. The river forms a natural boundary between these two protected areas. Here live jaguars, anteaters and howler monkeys, together with other interesting animals and over three hundred bird species.
The falls aren't only visually attractive. They are acoustically breath-taking as well. This entire area is amazingly beautiful, with luxuriously green and lush vegetation and these constantly rising mist clouds. The variety of plants, including endemic ones, is really amazing. All in all, this place need to be seen.
Machu Picchu was probably built at the time when Inca's emperor was Pachacuti, in the fifteenth century. It was abandoned only a century after that, during the Spanish conquest. Thanks to the fact these Spanish Conquistadors never found out about this city, it was mostly preserved in its original shape. Spanish conquistadors would have destroyed the sacred rocks you can see here.
This amazing place was hidden for centuries, surrounded by the jungle. One American historian, Hiram Bingham, found it in 1911. He was a history professor on the Yale University. After that, he became obsessed by this great place and wrote several books about it. His book The Lost City Of The Incas made him quite popular.
Peruvian Government understood the value of this area and declared it as historical sanctuary. The site is included in UNESCO's World Heritage List. This is still really intriguing civilization and this beautiful example of their architecture will make your juices flow. Although some parts had to be reconstructed, the city is preserved in original state.
It is still quite unknown why it was build in this particular spot and with what purpose. There are so many theories about that. In early days, it was thought that it could be the Lost City.Espiritu Pampa, the real Lost City was found maybe eighty kilometers from Peru's capital, of course, but other theories can still be heard. Some believe it was built as a royal retreat, and some that this all landscape is sacred.
Umamba River surrounds it on three sides. There is a secret entrance there, once used by their soldiers. They made a rope bridge across the river, and this is an example or Inca's architecture. Coming here is a real treat. The buildings are extraordinary, the view is stunning and surrounding nature is breath-taking. If you enjoy architectural sights, this is a place for you.
