BR-01-12 the lost city of Machu Picchu



“Time may be running out for the ‘lost City of the Incas’.” (p.18)



Have you ever been to Machu Picchu? I want to go there once so Today I read the lost city of Machu Picchu. The city is a beautiful and old city in Peru. It was forgotten for many years, but now many people are visiting it. Some people think that too many visitors may not be good for the city. It is sometimes called the “Lost City of the Incas,” and it is nearly 8000 feet up in the Andes Mountains of Peru. There is a long history more than 500 years old. For a long time Machu Picchu was lost to the outside word but in 1911, an explorer named Hiram Bingham found it again.
