In 1911, American explorer Hiram Bingham climbed into the Andes Mountains and "discovered" the ancient Incan city of Machu Picchu. One hundred years later, the site remains as fascinating, yet mysterious, as ever. In his new book, travel writer Mark Adams journeys to Peru to retrace Bingham's steps to try and finally answer the question: Just exactly what was Machu Picchu?
