Book Review 2-12 “The Lost City of Machu Picchu”

Today, I read a book about Machu Picchu. Machu Picchu is wonderful ancient city. It is nearly 8000 feet up in the Andes Mountains of Peru.


In this book, there is not only the introduction of Machu Picchu. The thoughts of people who live near Machu Picchu were also written. Recently, many tourists visit the city to go and watch Machu Picchu. The tourists spend money and enrich the city. But on the other hand some tourists apprehensive of the environmental destruction. The problem is what both of them can understand reasons each other. But most people think that Machu Picchu must be exposed for all visitors because Machu Picchu is a worldwide heritage in genetral.

I was interested in mysterious Machu Picchu and the city. If I visit tourist attractions, I must think about the future of the heritage. And I want to go to Machu Picchu absolutely someday.
