Exploration Path
We begin in Ollantaytambo, where we take the train to Aguas Calientes. There, we take the bus up to Machu Picchu. We walk towards Inti Punku or Puerta del Sol, an old check point, to enter the citadel. Then we descend and explore this magical place for approximately three hours. Once we have thoroughly explored the sanctuary, we leave Machu Picchu and head towards the station to take the train back.
