Plastic bottles banned from Machu Picchu


In order to avoid negative environmental impacts on Machu Picchu, the Municipality of Machu Picchu has ratified a by-law banning plastic bottles from the monument. Visitors to Machu Picchu may carry water in personal containers, canteens or glass bottles. This by-law will take effect on the 13th of August 2009.
