Peruvians—and tourists from many places—visit Cuzco tostudy the past. At Cuzco, people board a small train that chugs its way through the Andes Mountains to a city that had been lost for centuries.    That city is called Machu Picchu. Many believe that when the Spanish invadersdestroyed Cuzco in the 1530’s, the Incas who remained fled to this hideaway in themountains. They spent the rest of their lives “lost” to the outside world. The people ofMachu Picchu eventually died out. Over the centuries, the village’s thatched roofscollapsed. Vines climbed over the stone walls and hid them from view.    In 1911, a young explorer, Hiram Bingham, decided to investigate stories of a “lostcity” of the Incas. He led an expedition from Cuzco into the mountains. At the top of onemountain, the group stumbled upon strange stones covered by brush. “It was hard to seethem,” Bingham wrote, “for they were partly covered with trees and moss.” The explorerschopped away the tangled growth and hauled out the dirt of centuries. At last, theyuncovered the city.
