Comments: The Machu Picchu Sanctuary Hotel is situated at the entrance to the archeological site. This hotel's website accurately describes what the professor-photographer saw and experienced by staying a night at this comfortable, yet simple, small hotel: "Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge is located right on the top of the mountain, a couple of seconds from the actual ruins themselves and thus enjoys a prime position within the sanctuary. A three and a half hour train journey from Cusco will take you to the colourful town of Aguas Calientes. There you will board a bus for the 30 minute drive up the mountain to the Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge and the ruins. While visiting, you will enjoy unforgettable sunrises, enchanting nights and the remains of the ancient culture of this unique place, considered part of Peru's and the world's cultural heritage."
Question: What does this photograph suggest about the very first impressions of Machu Picchu?
