Machu Picchu | Peru | Aguas Calientes | Scenic Train | Incan Cities | Hot Springs in Peru | Banos Termales
The scenic train from Ollantaytambo to Aguas Calientes was perfect for getting to the town at the foot of the Machu Picchu mountain. The town is well known for its hot springs enjoyed since Incan times. Now called Baños Termales, the springs are still popular and said to have many healing properties. Today, the hot springs are tapped and flow out into several pools, each at different temperatures. We couldn't resist the opportunity to visit with other travelers at this famous spot while enjoying soaking. Although getting there required an uphill hike, it was well worth it!
