Rare Pictures of Machu Picchu in Park of Fountains

We headed to the Park of Fountains, which contained 13 different fountains and supposedly have a Guinness World Record for either the largest number of fountains or biggest musical fountain. 

It was definitely an extremely huge park and there were some rather interesting fountains here, including a really enchanting laser show using the fountain’s water as a backdrop.

However, what interested me more was actually a photo exhibit on Machu Picchu that was ending in the weekend (we only learnt about the exhibit when we were in the park), and for that I was glad that we had visited the park, as I was a little skeptical about entering it earlier.

What was interesting about this exhibit was the rare photos that were taken during the expedition which Bingham led to find Machu Picchu, and the state Machu Picchu was in when it was first found. 

It was even more interesting for me as I had only just been in Machu Picchu a couple of weeks earlier, and seeing the images and being able to put it into context of where the images were taken on Machu Picchu, was truly amazing!
