Turn Right at Machu Picchu: Rediscovering the Lost City One Step at a Time
By Mark Adams
(From Amazon) In 1911, Hiram Bingham III climbed into the Andes Mountains of Peru and “discovered” Machu Picchu. While history has recast Bingham as a villain who stole both priceless artifacts and credit for finding the great archeological site, Mark Adams set out to retrace the explorer’s perilous path in search of the truth—except he’d written about adventure far more than he’d actually lived it. In fact, he’d never even slept in a tent.
“Turn Right at Machu Picchu” is Adams’ fascinating and funny account of his journey through some of the world’s most majestic, historic, and remote landscapes guided only by a hard-as-nails Australian survivalist and one nagging question: Just what was Machu Picchu?
By Gaston Acurio
(From Amazon)
Acurio guides cooks through the full range of Peru’s vibrant cuisine from popular classics like quinoa and ceviche, and lomo saltado to lesser known dishes like amaranth and aji amarillo.

This 10-minute video, available on Amazon’s streaming service, focuses on Cusco. Though its approach is dated, the visuals are striking.
