WHAT TO DO IN Aguas Calientes

Aguas Calientes, the gateway town to Machu Picchu, is more than just a stopover—it’s a place worth exploring in its own right. Stroll through its lively streets filled with artisan markets where you can discover handmade crafts, textiles, and local souvenirs. Take time to relax in the thermal hot springs that gave the town its name, a soothing experience after trekking or sightseeing. For nature lovers, short hikes such as the Putucusi Mountain trail or the path to the Mandor Gardens offer a chance to immerse yourself in lush cloud forests and waterfalls. In the evening, enjoy authentic Peruvian cuisine at local restaurants, while soaking in the vibrant atmosphere of a town that blends tradition, culture, and adventure.
