Temple of the Condor

The Temple of the Condor and the main temple are also located on a high ground in Machu Picchu. The Temple of the Condor is named because there is a large stone similar to an eagle nearby, and this stone is obviously carved by ancient people.

The Condor Heights can be visited together with the Temple of the Sun, as the two are not far apart. Compared with the Temple of the Sun, the Condor Heights Temple looks a little more dilapidated, but such a remnant will be more effective for taking photos, and it is very beautiful.

The Temple of the Condor is also located at a relatively high place. The scale of the entire building of the Temple of the Condor can still be clearly seen, and through the Temple of the Condor, you can also see the beautiful architectural complex of Machu Picchu.

The Temple of the Vulture. The temple gets its name from the two stone slabs that form the wings and head of the bird. Defined by the carved rocks on the ground. The public area located above the Temple of the Vulture is the public area, also known as the secular area or industrial area. It is thought to have housed the workers of the kingdom, as the architecture is poorer than that of the previous section. Bingham speculates that the two rounded rocks protruding from the floor of one building were used to crush grain, but as they show no wear and are highly polished, this seems unlikely.

The Temple of the Condor in Machu Picchu is named after the huge natural stone in front of the door that looks like an eagle spreading its wings and ready to fly. It is severely damaged, but from the ruins, you can still see some scenes of the time, such as the horse-tie stone at the door, which is well preserved, and the carvings on the collapsed eaves are clearly visible. It is still worth a visit.

The Temple of the Condor is an important architectural relic in the Machu Picchu ruins. You need to walk to the middle of the ruins to get close to it. It is a place for religious worship. The Incas used their superb skills to carve rocks to form the current Temple of the Condor.

The abstract condor pattern made up of huge stones is a very interesting place. The triangular stone on the ground is transformed into the condor's beak, and the two large stones are its wings. Although I think it looks more like an eagle resting when viewed from the side, it is still amazing that they can transport the stones up there.

The Temple of the Condor is not far from the Temple of the Sun in Machu Picchu. It is also a towering temple. Because there is a natural boulder in front of the temple, from a certain angle, it looks like an eagle spreading its wings and ready to fly, which is in harmony with the beautiful scenery of the top of Machu Picchu, giving people a very sacred feeling.
