The view from Huayna Picchu

This is the view of Machu Picchu from the top of Huayna Picchu, the mountain that dominates the background of all the postcard shots of Macchu Picchu. Incredibly, the Incas had several important ceremonial sites on this mountain, which tourists can reach by following steep 45 degree steps with a metal cable as a hand rail. Really exposed hiking! Alot like the AngelĀ“s Landing hike in Zion National Park.
