Huayna Picchu Stairs of Death

'Stairs of death' (15th Century CE), are a section of stone steps, built by Incas (1438-1533 CE). The stairs of death located at peak Huayna Picchu mountain, 2693m above sea level (one of steep mountains that overlooks Machu Picchu), Peru. These stairs lead to top of Huayna Picchu, where we found Inca ruins on top. The Incas used agricultural terraces and platforms that resembled steps to cultivate crops. The spectacular old city of Machu Picchu is remarkable among the stunning views, along with the view of the Temple of the Moon. The stairs of death are also known as Huayna Picchu Stairs of Death, they are so narrow, sometimes you can't even put both of your feet on a step. Additionally, there won't be anything for climbers to hang onto when climbing these stairs except from the terraces on one side. Read More – Elafonisi Beach – Pink Paradise on a Greek Island
