Machu Picchu is probably the most famous place in Peru. It is often referred to as the Lost City of the Incas because it lay undiscovered until 24th July, 1911. It was the American archaeologist, Hiram Bingham, who came across it whilst he was searching for Vilcabamba - the legendary last stronghold of the Incas (which the Spanish conquistadores believed contained the Inca’s greatest treasure - but they never found it!).
