    About this ebook

    Considered to be one of the New Seven Wonders of the World in 2019, Machu Picchu is a man-made structure situated in the Andes Mountains in Peru. One of the things that makes it so special is that even though it was built in the 1400s, it was not discovered until the early 1900s, giving it a long-lasting opportunity to keep its form and magnificence when it comes to architecture and engineering.
    This ancient citadel was built by the incredible Inca civilization many centuries ago.

      Introduction

      Over the course of time, nothing has sparked curiosity and wonder more than our ancient civilizations. From the Greeks to the Egyptians, to the Byzantines and the Shang Dynasty, we will always be looking back at our history and wondering just what our ancestors left behind for us to marvel at.

      The mysteries are endless, and with every new discovery come new theories, new imaginative stories, and even more unanswered questions. Truth be told, we will always be fascinated by the unknown, and we will always believe that there is more to be discovered and found. Some even believe we haven’t even scratched the surface.

      So it’s no surprise that studying human history is perhaps the most fascinating experience anyone could go through. To learn about our past and where we came from is just engrossing and exciting, and it offers a whirlwind of a ride that will take you through different ages and dynasties.
