Cusco, Jun. 30 (ANDINA). The Inca citadel of Machu Picchu, in Peru’s southern Cusco region, will stay open to visitors until 14:00 hours on July 7, main day of the 100th anniversary celebrations of its scientific discovery, regional director of Culture Juan Garcia said Wednesday.
He told Andina that the monument will receive visitors until the said time, when authorities will close its doors. Those who enter minutes before will be able to stay there for two hours.
“Tourists won’t be allowed to enter after 14:00 hours and those who enter in the last group will be allowed to stay for a maximum of two hours. That’s the regulation,” said Cusco’s official.
He recalled that only 800 tickets have been put on sale for this date (usually, Machu Picchu can hold a maximum of 2,500 people).
Garcia said that for that day alternative routes have been established in the citadel, so that tours do not interfere with the ceremony scheduled for the morning. Andina.
