Magical Machu Picchu

Hello my fellow Steemit friends. It has been a while since I have posted and I must say I am very pleased to see how well Steemit is doing. The community has grown, the content has matured, and there has been many updates and refinements which noticeably make things a lot better.

I continue to travel and visit new and exotic places and as a result, have much to share with you. Sites I have seen, cultures I have learned about, and pictures I have taken, all in hopes of sharing just a little bit of what I have been lucky enough to experience.

Today I share with you pictures from a trip I did to Machu Pichuu - one of the many places that I suggest one should visit at least once in their lifetime. It's as peaceful and spiritual as it is beautiful.

Machu Picchu is all that remains of the lost Incan civilization in Peru before it was ravaged by the Spanish
