====== Start Quote ======
This ruin is a small circular building, originally discovered by Hiram Bingham while searching out the entrance routes to Machu Picchu. Possibly a fortress, put perhaps more likely a resting place for travelers along the Inca Trail.

The two doors, one on the left, and one on the right, were access to lodging rooms. The front point of view was a lookout point.
