Due to the social unrest that the country is currently going through, Peru has decided to close Machu Picchu, but also the famous Inca Trail.
“The closure of the Inca Trails network (land access, Inca Trail) and the Llaqta (Citadel) of Machu Picchu has been ordered due to the social situation and to preserve the integrity of visitors “, indicated the Ministry of Culture in a press release taken up by the Huffington Post.
The train to reach Aguas Calientes from Cusco is currently out of service due to rails damaged by protesters.
Remember that due to the social tensions that the country is going through, travel to Peru is currently discouraged by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
