    GLOSARY
    CUSCO

    Cuzco (often spelled Cusco, less frequently Qosqo or Qusqu) is a city in southeastern Peru, near the Urubamba Valley (Sacred Valley) of the Andes mountain range. It is the capital of the Cusco Region as well as the Cusco Province. The city has a population of about 300,000, triple the population it contained just 20 years ago. The altitude of the city, located on the eastern end of the Knot of Cuzco, is around 3,500 m (11,500 feet). The historic capital of the sun-worshipping Inca empire, it has been found in 2006 to be the spot on Earth with the highest UV level

    LIMA

    Lima, capital of Lima Province, is both the capital and largest city in Peru. It is the cultural and economic hub of the country. Lima occupies the valleys of the Chillón, Rímac and Lurín rivers. It lies on a desertic coast overlooking the Bay of Lima in the Pacific Ocean where its port was built and named Callao. Lima was founded by Spanish conquistador Francisco Pizarro on January 18, 1535, as the City of Kings. It became the most important city in the Spanish Viceroyalty of Peru, an administrative area encompassing most of Spain's possessions in South America during the colonial era (mid 1500s to early 1800s). For more than three centuries, Lima was the greatest metropolis in South America. Today nearly one-third of the nation's population lives in this one metropolitan area.

    MACHUPICCHU

    Machu Picchu (Quechua: Machu Piqchu Old Peak; sometimes called the "Lost City of the Incas") is a well-preserved pre-Columbian Inca ruin located at 2,430 m (7,970 ft)[1] on a mountain ridge. Machu Picchu is located above the Urubamba Valley in Peru, about 70 km (44 mi) northwest of Cusco. Forgotten for centuries by the outside world, although not by locals, it was brought back to international attention by archaeologist Hiram Bingham who rediscovered it in 1911, and wrote a best-selling work about it. Peru is pursuing legal efforts to retrieve thousands of artifacts that Bingham removed from the site.

    VISTA DOME

    The Vistadome service runs from Cusco, Poroy or Ollantaytambo in the Sacred Valley, to the ancient ruins at Machu Picchu. It offers a stunning journey in comfortable, efficient trains, with carriages that have been especially designed with panoramic windows that offer unsurpassed scenic views and photographic opportunities. The Vistadome train is also the quickest way to get to Aguas Calientes (Machu Picchu) station. The three-and-a-half hour journey takes you through a changing landscape of lush, green fields and colorful Andean villages, to a spectacle of rushing rivers, steep green mountains and rocky outcrops hung with orchids and bromeliads. Machu Picchu hides only a short bus journey away.
