When reading about ancient architecture I was began to think of a place I've always wanted to visit and found very interesting. Machu-Pichu in Peru exemplifies ancient architecture because it incorporates the landscape into the buidlings without offending the surrounding. This is in contrast to modern day archcitecture where, for the most part, surrounding and landscape are not respected. The use of stone that is the smae color as the stone around it, incorporates the buildings and at the smae time gives it a mystical feeling.
