Machu Picchu Hike: Incas Under Spanish Rule 🇵🇪

[@JohnCGUNSNFREEDOM]

Wow it's more beautiful than I've ever seen on any T.V show

[@bmarie8939]

I totally agree. Beautiful video.

[@Plexiate]

I've never felt the urge to throw a paper plane so bad in my life.

[@jimmd-g7m]

Harald, I'm heading here in 2 weeks and your history lesson just made it more interesting. Safe travels and keep it up, top class this.

[@HaraldBaldr]

I'm actually jealous you're going. It's gonna be fantastic. Better than any photo or video can convey

[@GM_-]

@Dennis Rodic well, less of a carbon footprint just staying put instead of going, if you're concerned about that aspect of travel.

[@stevebello1098]

Who else wants the vlogs to be longer? Harald you’re vlogs are the only ones I can watch all the way bro. Good content 👍😁

[@conifergreen2]

Yes longer videos Harald.

[@deshog999]

Have already asked you Harald...make them loooonnngggeerrr Please !

[@the_jzapata]

So glad he's made them longer.

[@Bharlos]

Far too long.....No such thing. You're seriously my favorite KZbinr, and have made consistent gems for quite some time now. Keep it up Haraldo Baldez

[@HaraldBaldr]

thanks man

[@janetkinsella1763]

Very true never get tired or bored with haralds vlogs very educational learn something new thanks to haraldo and his travels great and views 😮💙

[@adamandeve3592]

The Spanish conquest of Peru was one of the most important campaigns in the Spanish colonization of the Americas. After years of preliminary exploration and military skirmishes, 168 Spanish soldiers under conquistador Francisco Pizarro, his brothers, and their native alliescaptured the Sapa Inca Atahualpa in the 1532 Battle of Cajamarca. It was the first step in a long campaign that took decades of fighting but ended in Spanish victory in 1572 and colonization of the region as the Viceroyalty of Peru. The conquest of the Inca Empire (called "Tahuantinsuyu"[2] or "Tawantinsuyu"[3] in Quechua, meaning "Realm of the Four Parts"),[4] led to spin-off campaigns into present-day Chile and Colombia, as well as expeditions towards the Amazon Basin.

[@hoz49]

Interesting despite all their depredations and plunder of the New World the Spanish government still went bankrupt...twice.

Harold the PTSD is strong with you mistaking Jeffrey your buddy for his cousins. It's natural to mourn in this way....Burundi

WOW!!! It's so beautiful there....Harold i dont care if your videos are 2 hours long lol i will be glued it watching them....thank you for the history i appreciate all the hard work you put into making them....enjoy the beauty of it all

[@tomn3610]

I totally agree with you Mary. His videos are so fascinating and interesting and educational. I wish they could be longer, but I cannot imagine the time and work that is involved for Harold to get them posted. But yes, even if they were two hours long, I would be glued to watching them also. :-)

[@MeaganMarie93]

This is the most beautiful video yet. It's stunning! Thanks for making these videos 💟

[@RossRoams]

Cool stuff, agree

[@lordpickle8424]

An absolutely insane amount of rock went into building that place and all 'Inca' sites. The walls are like your standard blocks but under the ground and the terraces you're walking on are feet upon feet of larger rocks at the bottom followed by layers of progressively smaller and smaller rocks just under the sand and soil. Within those layers too are like little channels to direct water to other places so it doesn't erode the soil. The engineering that went into building that thing is just insane.

[@MikeHannover]

Perfect timing for the uplaod, one day I hope to visit Machu Picchu. I visited Florence after watching your series and I loved it, even met the nice lady at Altobio in central market 👍

[@medicfedor]

I really like how you put the historical information in there, its just puts the cherry on top of a huge cake.

[@nonfungibles]

You pretty much explained the history like an experience guide would. Mucho amazingo considering you took 1 week to learn all the history!!

[@HaraldBaldr]

Sadly the first 20 minutes of footage is lost. Would've made more sense with that included but have some people trying to repair the file now. Fingers crossed for it working

[@nonfungibles]

@@HaraldBaldr sending some Inka spit for good luck!

[@breebree6289]

You have made me want to visit here so badly. I've always been a fan of history and when you do videos like this, im hanging on every word you say. The views are breathtaking... to see all that and learn something at the same time is just awesome. Being in Australia we are so far away from the rest of the world. Thank you so much for sharing with us such beautiful place that most of us can only dream about. You've quickly become my favourite vlogger. 💟

[@lynn5980]

Amazing video! The filming and background history made me wish the video didn’t end so soon. Give us more like this please.

[@allaroundmavic650]

[@samgrimshaw388]

Nice one Harald another fantastic video

[@williamthompson7162]

Harald, you just saved this old guy all that huffing and puffing, climbing up there to show us Machu Picchu - and the at-least $500 to get there. Your history talk was gravy. Having watched tons of your VLOGs to all the fabulous world places, I've concluded the best parts of it all is "Harold," himself. Your choice of Italy as the planet's top spot is "spot" on - even though you make the best of the rest of them. Here's a salute to your realism and sincerity in everything you do.

[@HaraldBaldr]

Cheers William!

[@EinkOLED]

Go and visit, it will be the best $500 you will have ever spent. I went there in 2016, the whole journey from cusco - aguas calientes - machu picchu was an unforgettable experience. Watching on a display doesn't do it justice!

[@GungFuIsGungFu]

Wow ! What a majestic place ! Great video Harald ! With your commentary, you made it all extra interesting !

[@dannyserafini]

Love it when you just ramble on making looong Vlogs even more enjoyable

[@libbyjones552]

Hello Harald! In my opinion, this is your best video yet! You walked us through and also explained much of the tragic history of Machu Picchu. Excellent job!!! 🙏💙

[@autumnortiz6782]

Boy, he learned a lot about this place. Was very interesting his points. It was sad what happened to the indigenous people and I'm glad he shared this beautiful place and some of their history

[@mytube0969]

Great vlog! In the area that is supposed to close at 15:30 look at the difference in the precision cuts of the stone compared to stones earlier in video. It is widely thought that these precisely cut stone structures are from another civilization that was pre-inca. In other places the stones used for building are enormous. I'm happy to hear that you will be spending more time touring the area. This is awesome content!

Hi Harald - your vlogs are never too long & we don't lose attention as they are always well edited & succinct. If it's an interesting & varied place such as this, then you naturally take enough time to do it justice - as you 'progressively' did!

[@luiscisneros1329]

Sadly what you said of Spanish colonization is true and there were many missmanagments for hundreds of years against indigenous people, but with time the contact between andean, amazonian, european, african and even asian cultures (XIX century) started to create a "mestizo" way of live that eventually saw the birth of the Peruvian nation that fought for independence in 1821. We peruvians have a bit of everything in our blood and in our culture. Sorry for any mistakes, english is not my first language. I'm from Arequipa - Perú Enjoy the rest of your trip :D !

[@wenonawatchman3020]

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS JOURNEY TO MACHU PICCHU!!! I have always wanted to go there and it seems like I just did. I have spinal issues and I doubt I would have made that trek down. You made me feel like I actually walked and jumped over those steep rocks! It probably doesn't mean much to some but if you are physically unable to walk or jump it really means a lot. I'm looking forward to many more videos to come......I'm a Native American by the way. My tribe is Navajo. So with that I want to say Aheehee' (THANK YOU).

One word...stunning! Your video was not too long, Harald. I could've watched footage of the site for hours! It was especially fun watching the parts where you got distracted because you were in such awe of the enormity and beauty of the area. I really felt like I was on the trek with you...impressive! Your history lesson was very informative and interesting. I look forward to part 2. It's too bad that you couldn't go exploring off the paths like you have in some of your castle vlogs. It would've been great to see more of this amazing place away from the tourists. I hope you found a way to get closer to Jeffrey's cousins for a visit 🤣 This is definitely one of my favourite vlogs of yours. Thanks again for sharing your adventures with us and bringing your viewers to global locations that many may never have the opportunity to travel to.

There is a "back door" into Agua Calientes that bypasses the costly train journey. From Cuzco or Ollantaytambo ride a collectivo to Santa Theresa, then another to Hydrolectica. From there it's an easy 6 mile walk along the railroad track to Aqua Callientes. Can be done in a day but an overnight in Santa Theresa, and a visit to the hot springs there, is recommended.
