11Machu Pichu, Peru

The erstwhile Inca village is on the radar of every archeologically inclined visitor. It attracts hordes of daily visitors looking to explore this intriguing and complex UNESCO World Heritage site. Sadly, these very same tourists are causing damage and destruction to the precious ancient site. Strict rules about hiring guides and staying only on designated paths are being enforced now to curb the tourism related menace. Why is it so tough to respect the rules of a land that is hosting us travelers? There is a cap on the number of daily visitors.

  1. Absolutely incorrect about the pigs. The pigs died from rotten feed that was sold by the previous corrupt government and killed many pigs through out the Bahamas. It had nothing to do with sand or alcohol.
