Machu Picchu has a very unique climate due to its location on the border of the Andes and the Amazon rainforest. In contrast to Cusco's relatively dry weather and barefaced mountains, Machu Picchu is lush and green, frequently surrounded by low-hanging clouds and mist. There are also many subtropical species of brightly colored birds and flowers to be seen.
