Machu Picchu: At the top of the mountain, large and impressive blocks of stone joined together without any amalgam make up one of the most important religious, political and cultural centers of the Inca empire: Machu Picchu.

Discovered in 1911 by Hiram Bingham, the Inca City is divided into two large sectors: the agricultural, with a vast network of platforms or artificial terraces, and the urban, with beautiful buildings such as the Temple of the Sun.

The Atacama Desert: Is a desert plateau in South America covering a 1,600 km (990 mi) strip of land on the Pacific coast, west of the Andes Mountains. The Atacama Desert is the driest nonpolar desert in the world, as well as the only true desert to receive less precipitation than the polar deserts and the largest fog desert in the world. Both regions have been used as experimentation sites on Earth for Mars expedition simulations. According to estimates, the Atacama Desert occupies 105,000 km2 (41,000 sq mi), or 128,000 km2 (49,000 sq mi) if the barren lower slopes of the Andes are included. Most of the desert is composed of stony terrain, salt lakes (salares), sand, and felsic lava that flows towards the Andes.
