Machu Picchu was an Incan retreat for its emperor. Machu Picchu is a 15th-century Inca site located on a ridge between the Huayna Picchu and Machu Picchu mountains in Peru. It sits 7,970 feet (2,430 meters) above sea level on the eastern slope of the Andes and overlooks the Urubamba River hundreds of feet below.

Cusco, a city in the Peruvian Andes, was once capital of the Inca Empire, and is now known for its archaeological remains and Spanish colonial architecture. Plaza de Armas is the central square in the old city, with arcades, carved wooden balconies and Incan wall ruins. The baroque Santo Domingo Convent was built on top of the Incan Temple of the Sun (Qoricancha), and has archaeological remains of Inca stonework.

Both Machu Picchu and Cusco are cities in Peru, one of the most geographically diverse regions in the world. Peru's geography shifts from oceanside coastlines to steep mountains to thick rainforests in as little as 100 miles. Similarly,both Machu Picchu and Cusco have a large collection of Incan ruins in common. These two cities were particularly important to the ancient Incans.
