But perhaps the most interesting of the facts Machu Picchu reveal is that it’s not the only lost city high in the Andean mountains. Archeologist and treasure hunters have been following rumors of other cities for years. So far none have been found. But, of course, that doesn’t mean that they’re not there. They’re just yet to be discovered.URBAN DICTIONARY ONLINE
Probably one of the most significant
features of Machu Picchu history is the architecture. Like
the pyramids of Egypt, it was created using massive stones
hauled over great distances. However, unlike the Egyptians, the
Incas didn’t use any kind of mortar to bind their stones
together. Instead they cut the stones with such precision
that they fit together so tightly that you couldn’t even fit a
thin knife blade between them.
This design made the Inca
structures highly resistant to earthquakes and it’s one of
the reasons Machu Picchu is still standing today.
