      Definitely not "built" mid 15th century (1400's) , that's when the Spaniards came and pillaged. They didn't just build it and leave at the same time . Built 100's of years before

      The transportation system in Peru is very challenging even for today to visit Machu Pichu, may it was due to the corrupt government. The tourism revenue is enough for to build a proper train system.
      I'm glad I get to visit Machu Pichu in September 2023, also visited lake Titicaca and the fascinating Rainbow Mountain. I'm glad Peru is doing their best to prevent over tourism in order to protect their famous sites.

    Thanks to Albert Lin and National Geographic, I am now an archaeology student. This show has always been my favorite and keeps me motivated. I remember watching it during the COVID era, which was my last year in high school. Although my parents initially disagreed with my decision to study this field, they now support me. Archaeology has become a vital part of my life. It is not just about studying history; it is about understanding ourselves as the creators of culture.

    Spent 2.5 weeks exploring through the Sacred Valley with 2 days at Machu Picchu a few years ago. It became easy to tell the difference of the megalithic stone structures, whose stones one cannot fit a razor between, from the Inca stone structures that were built near and on top of those. (It has been written, by the Spanish who conquered the Inca as to who built the megalithic stone structures, that the Inca denied building those structures.) it was pleasing to see that credibility is now starting to become adapted by the mainstream archaeologists, that the megalithic stone structures were not built by the Incas. Although being called “pre Inca” stone structures in this video, it is a hope that the civilization who truly built the megalithic stone works will someday be discovered and accepted by all.
    (Note: I realize that not all pre Inca stone structures were megalithic ones, and that there were many pre Inca civilizations there that used stones to build with.)
    Thank you. So enjoyed this video and seeing again many of the sites that I once saw.

      I wish Albert would have taken some samples of that skull they found among the stones of the wall they came across early on in this presentation. Although it's not his area if interest, it would be interesting to see what DNA would reveal about the origin of the Incas.
      There are some who believe they are Hebrew descendants of the slaves who built the Great Pyramids of Egypt. I would suppose those ancient Hebrews would have passed their knowledge of how they accomplished the amazing feat of building the Pyramids on down from generation to generation.
      If they happened to have migrated across the ocean to South America to become the Incas who built Machu Picchu, it would explain how they had the knowledge to get those megaliths so tight that not even a razor blade could fit between them.

    I was there in 1986 and 2006. Magical, Amazing place! In 86 got off the bus and walked right in. In o6, got off and stood in line. Today, I've heard it reservations only. Ancient Peruvians had no written language so it may remain a mystery forever. ( at one time, a proposal was considered to install Swiss alp style cable cars)

      If you are referring to the pre Inca mount top, it's not for the general tourist to visit. They had special permissions for this episode. Peru infrastructure is still very challenging, i visited Machu Pichu in September 2023. There's no straight way to even visit the country 's main attraction, it involves taxi from my hostel to the local bus station, transfer to a local mini bus for an hour ride, then to the slow train. I waited for 2 hours to buy the Machu Pichu ticket for the next morning.
      I was very lucky to buy my ticket within issue. Most people either paid 3 x more from the travel agency or waiting for another day to buy the tickets. The Peruvian government was limiting the ticket sales to prevent over tourism and to protect the sites.

    My opinion while my mind wonders watching the program is Machu Picchu was built high on the mountain top was to remain above the destruction of the volcano where people who settled around it lost their lives when the volcano erupted. While living above the destruction it preserved life and their agricultural essentials. Just a thought!
