The Monumental Mausoleum is a carved statue with a vaulted interior and carved drawings.

Machu Picchu has at least two structures that may have had astronomical importance. The first is a stone pillar that the Incas called "for tying the Sun," or "intihuatana."

Terraces, water ducts and steps have been cut out of solid rock, and in the upper sector of the ruins, the main Sun Temple is equal of anything at Machu Picchu. Above the temple lie still more ruins, mostly unexcavated, and among the higher crevices and rocky overhangs several ancient burial sites are hidden.</p><p>Photo by <a href="https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/">Clotilde</a></p> https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104633 Sun, 11 May 2008 20:15:48 GMT https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104631 <p><a href="https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104631"><img src="https://www.23hq.com/2781380/3104631_387c07dedfa7cd17fa5689573fff0378_standard.jpg" width="460" height="345" class="23-standard"/></a></p><p>Mountains overlooking the village of Pisac</p><p>Photo by <a href="https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/">Clotilde</a></p> https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104631 Sun, 11 May 2008 20:13:23 GMT https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104628 <p><a href="https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104628"><img src="https://www.23hq.com/2781380/3104628_631a659c2bf6209ae38615f7e96a65e7_standard.jpg" width="460" height="345" class="23-standard"/></a></p><p></p><p>Photo by <a href="https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/">Clotilde</a></p> https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104628 Sun, 11 May 2008 20:11:06 GMT https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104609 <p><a href="https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104609"><img src="https://www.23hq.com/2781377/3104609_d90f68b7dc4569f522bd165336375c81_standard.jpg" width="460" height="345" class="23-standard"/></a></p><p>URUBAMBA - The sacred valley of the Incas</p><p>Photo by <a href="https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/">Clotilde</a></p> https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104609 Sun, 11 May 2008 19:45:58 GMT https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104595 <p><a href="https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104595"><img src="https://www.23hq.com/2781377/3104595_e658fe712d179c166ac2cdd0fd9c4fe7_standard.jpg" width="460" height="345" class="23-standard"/></a></p><p></p><p>Photo by <a href="https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/">Clotilde</a></p> https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104595 Sun, 11 May 2008 19:43:29 GMT https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104588 <p><a href="https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104588"><img src="https://www.23hq.com/2781377/3104588_dec75c9e9397eaa524768d1cac087c98_standard.jpg" width="460" height="345" class="23-standard"/></a></p><p></p><p>Photo by <a href="https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/">Clotilde</a></p> https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104588 Sun, 11 May 2008 19:40:20 GMT https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104573 <p><a href="https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104573"><img src="https://www.23hq.com/2781378/3104573_88274b7a9b896b2210fa9b181a43da82_standard.jpg" width="460" height="345" class="23-standard"/></a></p><p></p><p>Photo by <a href="https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/">Clotilde</a></p> https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104573 Sun, 11 May 2008 19:37:23 GMT https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104558 <p><a href="https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104558"><img src="https://www.23hq.com/2781377/3104558_7514f9b0a7382079459ca3f5838f419d_standard.jpg" width="460" height="345" class="23-standard"/></a></p><p></p><p>Photo by <a href="https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/">Clotilde</a></p> https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104558 Sun, 11 May 2008 19:34:26 GMT https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104551 <p><a href="https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104551"><img src="https://www.23hq.com/2781380/3104551_6392ce1917dd24ce8901b4d2311f13c2_standard.jpg" width="460" height="345" class="23-standard"/></a></p><p></p><p>Photo by <a href="https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/">Clotilde</a></p> https://www.23hq.com/Clotilde/photo/3104551 Sun, 11 May 2008 19:29:26 GMT
