No need for me to tell you about this wonder. Perhaps just a reminder about its 3 primary structures, the Intihuatana (Hitching post of the Sun), the Temple of the Sun, and the Room of the Three Windows. These are located in what is known by archaeologists as the Sacred District of Machu Picchu.
Machupicchu receives every day 2500 visitors meaning people all over the place, a challenge for a photographer!
You reach the archaeologic site only by train. From Cuszo or in our case leaving our hotel in Yucay at 6 am by car, boarding at Ollataytambo to Aguas Calientes. Then run the remaining 8 kms, on foot or by bus, but mind you a ride a little stressful.
