Machu Picchu is divided into an agricultural and urban area where we'll find squares, temples, roads, stairways, terraces, and aqueducts, among many other impressive enclosures. Machu Picchu is built on agricultural terraces or also called andenes, on which strong stone walls rest, preventing their sliding.
