…and how come we felt the need to walk up & down every one of those stairs?
Machu Picchu was spectacular & we lucked out on the weather. We feel so privileged to have been able to experience another one of the wonders of the World. This lost Incan civilization was discovered by an American not too long ago. Here’s more info. to use or lose for more information about Machu Picchu. We spent the night at a wonderful & relaxing resort called The Inkaterra so we could spend more time at Machu Picchu.

Besides rich architecture, culture & history, Machu Picchu has stairs. Lots & lots of stairs that are not for the faint of heart. So, after walking up & down those stairs all day long (with sore butts from the earlier bus ride) the thing we’re wondering is this: If the Incas were such short people, how come they built such ginourmous stairs throughout Machu Picchu?
Ideas?
