Peru will submit a US$132.5 million ($186.1 million) plan to the United Nations' cultural body to preserve the famous Inca citadel, Machu Picchu, from the ravages of tourism and avoid losing its status as a World Heritage site.
The 400-page plan foresees investment of US$132.5 million to preserve the ruined citadel and the Inca trail.
About 2500 visitors a day troop through the stone site, perched on a mountain saddle 2560m high.
