Machu Picchu, Peru’s most famous archaeological site and one of the New Seven Wonders of the World<\/a>, is preparing to welcome more visitors. The Peruvian authorities have approved an increase in the site’s capacity, from 3,044 to 4,500 visitors a day from 2024, and up to 5,600 tourists on certain specific dates that have not yet been announced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The decision to increase Machu Picchu’s visitor capacity was taken after an in-depth analysis and consultations with various stakeholders<\/a>, including conservation experts, over several months in order to strike a balance between preserving the site and promoting tourism<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To accompany this increase in visitor capacity, additional measures will be put in place to ensure the sustainability and conservation of the site<\/strong>.
