Huayna Picchu, Quechua: Wayna Pikchu, is a mountain in Peru around which the Urubamba River bends.

The Incas built a trail up the side of the Huayna Picchu and constructed temples and terraces at its top.

Every morning before sunrise, the high priest with a small group would walk to Machu Picchu to signal the coming of the new day.

These are several caves, some of which have been lined (on a larger scale than the Mausoleum of Machu Picchu) with finely crafted blocks that have been cut to fit precisely with the irregular contours of the large rock outcrops that serve as their ceiling.

The walls, clearly ornamental in nature, include false doorways and trapezoidal niches with double and triple jambs.

It reveals, in any case, the common interest in comparing it in quality with other Inca buildings, such as the "Temple of the Sun" of Machu Picchu.
