I absolutely loved my time in Peru. This documentary pulled at my heart and I really want to go back. The people are amazing. Generous and warm. I learned so much about Pacha Mama and the Incan traditions. I feel like I left part of myself in Ollantaytambo, Machu Picchu and Cusco. I loved Cusco.
I lived very similar adventures while living in Cusco for 9 months and traveling to regularly to different ruins and isolated mountain communities. It's another world. Beautifully frozen in time.
so interesting how this guys does his show, he doesn't just look at the past and how they used to live, he highlights and shows how the people are today and compares and contrast...it's kinda cool, you get two specials in one.
Peru is probably the most historic country in South America, the culture of ancient Peru is impressive! I dream of meeting it one day, the most beautiful and attractive country in South America in my opinion. Blessings.
After being more educated on indigenous American civilisations and their rich history this documentary is excellent to watch. God bless K on mum’s account
A very well done video. Thank you. I've been to Peru 11 times and one thing is certain...the religious sites are NEVER forgotten so that site was not a temple. Your excellent video took a tremendous amount of work.
this video is beyond awesome in how the Inca's were able to hide in a landscape where you can easily get lost, if not for the guides. thank you for sharing this
Amazing. We will be searching out history til the end of time. I'm so glad we now appreciate how the past impacts us today. The locals, despite the heat, are wearing long ponchos and their arms are fully covered. Always see what the locals do for safety. Sometimes, DEET is not allowed, so you need to know before you go. I wouldn't go anywhere that it is not permitted. I take sugar in my tea, so insects love me. Skip ALL sugar for a few months before you travel and you'll be less appetizing to bugs. I've tested it.
Absolutely fascinating video of the Peru lost city of Gold. As always each frame of the video was lovely. To be able to see such colorful mantles of the people and their dresses with those lovely caps. Adams is always doing his best along with Tracks team to give us this video. Thanks for bringing the World nearer.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING DAVID ESPEJO SIMPLY AMAZING HOW MUCH EFFORT HAD TO HAVE BEEN EXERTED TO CONSTRUCT SUCH STRUCTURES SO DISTANT & SO HIGH INTO THE CLOUDS
The Inca are some of the chosen from before the cataclysm flood. Much of the incan, and Mayan culture is much older than they say. They had some amazing stuff... their irrigation systems used wind and air pressure to move water through aqueducts. Some are still functioning
Intriguingly thrilling work from David Adams im gripped by his journeys and fascinated with the courage/compassion extended by all involved. Priceless and delicious. xx
I very much like that David Adams is always willing to openly relate to what he sees and never lectures the viewer. Edit: The porters use only sandals instead of alpine/andean boots!
There is surely a Bonanza of mineral resources in that wide expanse, including Tons of Gold., Silver, Emeralds, all sorts~! Awesome God and this is just one planet.
You cannot believe everything that mommy professor says. The Inca did not build all the roads in the Andes, much of that road system existed before the Inca came to power. And they did not do the megalithic stone work: they found it and built lesser quality stonework on it.
@@riverdeep399 he is being a wise guy but he is actually correct. The Inca were the blink of an eye in the history of South America. And not really nice folks!! De nada!
YES INDEED ,THEIR CULTURE AND HOW THEY VALUE THE NATURE AROUND THEM IS VERY SIMILAR TO EAST INDIAN REVERACE OF MOUNTAINS AND RIVER GODS AND THE WORSHIP OF SUNGOD.
What a beautiful place,lets leave it that way,tjey habe beem through enough.my children are half Peruvian....some day God willing i will show yhem thatcgreat culture. VIVA PERU CARAJO.
what an amazing place and stunning scenery....just amazing how the locals only wear sandals to go in the mountains...and so incredible to find that abandoned village/city....
hope you read the comments,,this vid is full if sht..all those buildings & roads were allready there,thousands of yrs before they got there.like 600,000 yrs ago..same as the pyramids.egyptians didnt build them,they settled there & robbed stone for there own builds..
5:43 thats a sad realization. Only 3 people out side of the culture have seen it, and all of them took most of it away. They just couldn't help their grubby little hands from taking stuff that wasn't theirs.
Does anyone know if they completed excavations of Inca Wasi? I haven't been able to find any updates since the Documentary by: *David Adams, Host* *"Peru - The Lost City of Inca Gold"* (This Documentary) Adams works are by far the most authentic of documentaries produced since the 1970's. *Produced for discovery and education,* rather than "entertainment and profits".
Very interesting to watch, but I was hoping for more archeology. It's more human interest than that: Local celebrations & fairs, culture, food, etc.. There's a journey by old truck. Then a rather odd segment of white water rafting Then lots and lots of hiking. Fascinating country and landscape. The destination lost city occupies the last ten minutes.

A few years ago i watched the trinidad gold explorers... they hsed a drone with a thermal imaging camera and that helped them find 3 clay brick molds the europeans used to melt the gold into bars to ship back Each had a value of at least 250,000 dollars Thats what i would search for in the jungles... what was left behind that has a historical value There is no doubt there are lots of burried treasures down there.. the only issue is the JUNGLE , WEATHER , ANIMALS... But if you do explore... taking the drone with thermal inaging camera is a must!!!!!!!
Man when we gonna very and aboriginal native to tell their history? As long as the conquerors tells history of the conquered our history will be wrong with sprinkles of truth.
@Michael Williams Okaaay. The way history is told and who tells it is a valid issue. The victors re-write history to their liking, and it's up to modern generations to sort out fact from propaganda. But be careful you don't spend so much time focusing on race and ethnicity in today's people (who is descended from whom) that you make the same mistakes those original conquerers did. If you're born in a country or you make it your home, don't you have the same right to tell its history no matter what your race or ancestry? It's wonderful for people to share the personal stories of their ethnicity and heritage, and that's even more important for aboriginal peoples, who have been so marginalised historically. But you don't need to share another person's cultural identity or ancestry in order to treat them with respect and help them piece together the historical truth that has been lost. Only picking up a weapon and actively contributing to the oppression of other people makes you a "conquerer."
mayb the true city of gold disappeared just like large gold deposits do. become transparent due to the large amounts of AU its protons speeds up because of consintration (amounts of AU) molicules speed up causing a melecular change in the alloy (physics anomilies happin)
@@alaskanadventuresjtwenterp1014 would you happen to know what that process is called? I tried looking it up but all I found was either ppl talking about how this happens when it is smelted or how various countries have had their gold robbed by the UK.
So right John. I've been to Peru 11 times and the different building styles are so apparent. Mostly, the Inca are used as tourist promotion. After all, their empire only lasted 500 years. I stayed in a house in Amsterdam that was already old when the conquistadors landed in Peru.
william brady , the Inca empire didn't even last as long as 500 years, and the expanded Inca empire didn't even last 200 years. The Inca ruling class were organizers of unprecedented genius but their empire was built on the foundations of preceding cultures and it had to expand constantly in order to secure the labor forces who could produce the material goods which were necessary for keeping the empire together and well fed. But by the time the Spaniards showed up on the doorsteps, the empire had already become unwieldy and very difficult to hold together and to govern. After it's swift expansion it had become too big with too many diverging local groups. Not all of the local potentats were keen on being governed by the Incas. Resistance and unrest were on the rise. Atahualpa's father, who was the last emperor who had never met any European intruders, had reckognized these difficulties, and he had apparently contemplated to split up the empire between his heir apparent Huascar and his son by another mother, Atahualpa. But he died too quickly (probably of smallpox) and couldn't securely implement plans for a smooth succession. And since neither Huascar nor Atahualpa were inclined to share the power and the limelight of being a god king, a bloody civil war erupted, with Atahualpa eventually being victorious. A careful analysis of the situation shows that the Incan empire might not have existed much longer as a stable political unit ruled by one god king even if the Europeans hadn't entered the theater. But the cultural achievements and the knowledge which had developed over thousands of years - with the Inca empire being a fairly recent phenomenon - would probably not have disappeared. The Spaniards had a lot of luck on their side: they arrived at a time, when the Inca empire was already weakened by severe internal conflicts and there was a lot of unrest and resistance of local groups who initally believed it might serve their own interests to become allies of the Spaniards in order to get rid of the foreign Inca rulers. Also, European diseases had tragically sneaked in and had started to take a terrible toll on the indigenous populations before they even met personally these mysterious hairy men on their large strange animals. But all this might not have brought down the empire - at least not so quickly - if Atahualpa hadn't totally underestimated this handful of strangers. He had not halted but facilitated their progress into the heart of his newly won empire. It's hard to discern his exact motives for letting the Spaniards in. He may just have been very curious. Since his spies had observed the Spaniards while they progressed, he was aware of their strange new technologies, and he knew that they were neither gods nor immortal. He also knew that the horses were mortal, too. It's hard to discern, why he didn't just capture the Spaniards and their horses alive instead of letting them progress freely. He certainly was no gullible fool, but I guess, Atahualpa didn't feel especially threatened by this small group of newcomers. He was after all the commander of thousands of well trained soldiers, who would all willingly die in order to protect his divine person. But he totally underestimated the cunning and the tactical genius of Pizarro, who was not at all an educated man but absolutely ruthless and fiercely ambitious. He was also very intelligent and had analyzed correctly the power structure of the empire. He even had the good sense to protect Atahualpa personally when his men tried to kill the emperor. Pizarro realized that a living emperor was far more useful than a dead one - at least for a while. But Pizarro himself admitted later that Cajamarca was a gamble. If a few things hadn't worked out for him, the Spaniards could have all been captured or killed during the fateful night of the battle. Ultimately this might not have stalled the influx of the Spaniards and the ravages caused by diseases. But the Incas could've regrooped and organized a much better defense. They might've been able to resist for a long time, especially since the west coast of Southamerica and the Andean highlands were much harder to reach for Europeans than Mesoamerica and later Northamerica. It was a very protracted journey to get there since the realm was protected by natural barriers: in the North and the Northwest by rain dense forests, in the East by the high Andes and in the West by the Pacific Ocean. The Europeans had to traverse either the thin land bridge of what is Panama today in order to reach the Pacific or they needed to go around the Southern tip of South America with their ships - either through the Magellan Street or around Cape Horn in order to access the South American West Coast. The Incas might've been able to conserve pockets of their culture, just like the Maharadjas in India. It's a pity that this didn't happen since the Spaniards eradicated the Andean cultures with an absolutely ruthless swiftness, and only very few learned men felt compelled to explore, study and preserve these highly developed cultures. It's an incredible loss for humanity.
@@zenmeister451 thanks so much for the appreciation ☺️ I think that the subject is fascinating. These documentaries often show beautiful pictures but don't get into the more complicated issues.
*Discovery* only refers to in the first person. I can discover something for "my" first time or representing a group. That said, European explorers did not regard the people they encountered as equal, due to cultural differences. Even if they had been Christian, the ultimate goal was pursuit of power in order to take charge of resources. Hence there was no way but death once the two worlds encountered each other.
Such an amazing video, much respect for the white water kayaking...not easy. As far as the gold disc, I'll bet it is in Rome, in the Vatican with all of the other precious historical pieces...for decades the Smithsonian has been selling pieces to them and before that, say during the Knights of Templar, the Vatican just took what they wanted....in the name of RICHES.....um, I mean god....(sarcasm....) Anyway, awesome video, quite a trip even for the viewer!
Its the "poor" people that know they are just a part of mother earth, while we destroy it not knowing we are the ones who face the consequences as well
Thanks buddy I do remember watching something like that when I was younger and your right it was city of gold or something I've got visions of it coming to me weird how your brain does that isn't it!!! Thanks for replying one love!!
You would find nothing. Inca's didn't care so much about gold, it was ornamental and religious. When Atawalpa was capture by the conquistadors he ordered all gold be brought in order to pay for his so called ransom. The Spanish killed him anyway but the point is that a command by the Inca was not a suggestion, it was sacred. The Inca was not only a monarch but a religious head as well. King and Pope all in one. There is no hidden gold... They didn't care that much about the metal.
Interesting... this Inca civilization resembles Indian civilization, like Children of Sun god. Old Indian dynasties are described as their ancestor is Sun (Surya Vamsha in Sanscrit ). Indian oldest scripts Vedas explain about worshiping thunder god, rain god and treated Rivers as goddesses.
Even when these "expeditions" happen. they really only spend a few hours or day or two on that site... what do you really think can be found in such a short amount of time... kind of useless unless time is comitted.
Seems like using Landsat imagery that cuts through the vegetation and consulting modern geological maps couldn’t hurt. Most the famous Peruvian/South American hard rock mines have been on reverse thrust faults so if I was looking for a lost mine I’d start with the mapped reverse faults and look for jogs in them. I’d rather have a geologist with me than an archeologist call the archeologist when you find something lol.
@@alexburke1899 could the short period of time just be for SHOW? Maybe they can get enough money from these films to maybe stay longer? And get more indept?

Litia Kalima . That’s really not what I meant. I’m talking about a civilisation possibly thousands of years older than the Inca. What a strange little mind you have.
Sylvia Patterson . Possibly, but the ruins are clearly older than what we’re told, same goes for the pyramids and the Sphinx.google Dr Robert Schoch, the geologist that has dated them far older. Graham Hancocks work is eye opening too.greetings from England.
can western history stop portraying themselves as if they discover something it is so frustrating to keep hearing that someone discover blah blah for once can you change the narrative.. this civilization exist and they striving.
That's what I say about Christopher Columbus and America. He didn't discover squat. Just cz history says he did, doesn't make it so. To me, discovering something is when u discover somewhere that no one has ever seen or stepped on. Just like when our scientists discovered certain planets, no one knew about them and as far as humans r concern, we've never been there. That 2 me is a discovery. What says u????
Been to Peru see for yourself the Inka did not build the giant megalithic structures Pumapunku or Puma Punku (Aymara and Quechua puma cougar, puma, punku door, Hispanicized Puma Puncu) is part of a large temple complex or monument group that is part of the Tiwanaku Site near Tiwanaku, in western Bolivia.

*The discovery was at "Inca Wasi", North of Cusco.*
The Inca didn't build the megalithic walls. They stacked rocks on top of them.
So right John. I've been to Peru 11 times and the different building styles are so apparent. Mostly, the Inca are used as tourist promotion. After all, their empire only lasted 500 years. I stayed in a house in Amsterdam that was already old when the conquistadors landed in Peru.
You guys ever wonder why this ultimately undeniable truth at this point is so well guarded a secret?
william brady , the Inca empire didn't even last as long as 500 years, and the expanded Inca empire didn't even last 200 years.
The Inca ruling class were organizers of unprecedented genius but their empire was built on the foundations of preceding cultures and it had to expand constantly in order to secure the labor forces who could produce the material goods which were necessary for keeping the empire together and well fed. But by the time the Spaniards showed up on the doorsteps, the empire had already become unwieldy and very difficult to hold together and to govern. After it's swift expansion it had become too big with too many diverging local groups. Not all of the local potentats were keen on being governed by the Incas. Resistance and unrest were on the rise.

He certainly was no gullible fool, but I guess, Atahualpa didn't feel especially threatened by this small group of newcomers. He was after all the commander of thousands of well trained soldiers, who would all willingly die in order to protect his divine person. But he totally underestimated the cunning and the tactical genius of Pizarro, who was not at all an educated man but absolutely ruthless and fiercely ambitious. He was also very intelligent and had analyzed correctly the power structure of the empire. He even had the good sense to protect Atahualpa personally when his men tried to kill the emperor. Pizarro realized that a living emperor was far more useful than a dead one - at least for a while. But Pizarro himself admitted later that Cajamarca was a gamble. If a few things hadn't worked out for him, the Spaniards could have all been captured or killed during the fateful night of the battle. Ultimately this might not have stalled the influx of the Spaniards and the ravages caused by diseases. But the Incas could've regrooped and organized a much better defense. They might've been able to resist for a long time, especially since the west coast of Southamerica and the Andean highlands were much harder to reach for Europeans than Mesoamerica and later Northamerica. It was a very protracted journey to get there since the realm was protected by natural barriers: in the North and the Northwest by rain dense forests, in the East by the high Andes and in the West by the Pacific Ocean. The Europeans had to traverse either the thin land bridge of what is Panama today in order to reach the Pacific or they needed to go around the Southern tip of South America with their ships - either through the Magellan Street or around Cape Horn in order to access the South American West Coast. The Incas might've been able to conserve pockets of their culture, just like the Maharadjas in India. It's a pity that this didn't happen since the Spaniards eradicated the Andean cultures with an absolutely ruthless swiftness, and only very few learned men felt compelled to explore, study and preserve these highly developed cultures. It's an incredible loss for humanity.
@@sabineb.5616 Thank you for taking the time to explain all of this...much appreciated!
@@zenmeister451 thanks so much for the appreciation ☺️ I think that the subject is fascinating. These documentaries often show beautiful pictures but don't get into the more complicated issues.

This explorer is the real indiana jones !!!!!!!
The golden sun disc would be the most significant ancient object worth millions !!!!!!
Very very cool
Basically the Incas gave thanks to all there resources
Congratulations many have try’d, but what a gut busting effort !
The worship the sun just like in Africa like the Egyptian !!
Because they was black with the same information
There are so many places on earth like this- without footprint of human even couple of century. Love to know with
your video.
Sadly no place left that the kabals puppets havent swept clean of our true past
Great documentary. So many places to discover
W0W! Very interesting video. So much info, Beautiful Scenery. The people of this region seem like very nice People
Doesn’t get you high it just gives you energy... lol
Greg Garfunkel it’s true.
very good
We live in 21st century
It don't impress me .
But country side with such cultures do
Your driver looked legally blind! Good thing he had a lot of experience on that road
*Discovery* only refers to in the first person. I can discover something for "my" first time or representing a group. That said, European explorers did not regard the people they encountered as equal, due to cultural differences. Even if they had been Christian, the ultimate goal was pursuit of power in order to take charge of resources. Hence there was no way but death once the two worlds encountered each other.
Such an amazing video, much respect for the white water kayaking...not easy. As far as the gold disc, I'll bet it is in Rome, in the Vatican with all of the other precious historical pieces...for decades the Smithsonian has been selling pieces to them and before that, say during the Knights of Templar, the Vatican just took what they wanted....in the name of RICHES.....um, I mean god....(sarcasm....) Anyway, awesome video, quite a trip even for the viewer!
Its the "poor" people that know they are just a part of mother earth, while we destroy it not knowing we are the ones who face the consequences as well
And now 'the tune' is in my head...
What tune is that then???
@@Nicholas-zc1ro There was a cartoon years ago, song was called city of gold I think?
ruclips.net/video/XtyXnr5XV_A/видео.html
Thanks buddy I do remember watching something like that when I was younger and your right it was city of gold or something I've got visions of it coming to me weird how your brain does that isn't it!!! Thanks for replying one love!!
If nearby helo landing strips or zones can be constructed more intense radar, lidar, and even under ground imaging may be done?
Nice one video great information about INCA's thanks
Thanks
Imagine doing that trek in Sandals, those are some tough dudes.
My thoughts exactly except I've been to Peru 11 times and am use to seeing it. The soles of their feet are as thick as boot soles but still...
Brady bums in downtown LA have similar feet. They can walk over broken glass and hot coal like it was nothing
@@youthinasia9523 Hahahahahaha
Maybe they do that so they can catch leeches to snack on as they go?
Cool dude. Peace
Doctrine of Discovery never ended.
@ 27:37, two nice pairs of boots followed by a plastic slipper! No need for Gore-Tex for the bada*s locals!
damn! I would love to take my metal detector to visit this area in Peru
You would find nothing. Inca's didn't care so much about gold, it was ornamental and religious. When Atawalpa was capture by the conquistadors he ordered all gold be brought in order to pay for his so called ransom. The Spanish killed him anyway but the point is that a command by the Inca was not a suggestion, it was sacred. The Inca was not only a monarch but a religious head as well. King and Pope all in one. There is no hidden gold... They didn't care that much about the metal.
@@aronzimas5660 correct me if im wrong but they cared about gold because it was the closest thing to their god Inca.
@@alexissantakidis8757 It was used for religious reasons but not as money
@@aronzimas5660 yeah now i agree with you
Skip the first 28 minutes!!!
don't if you've visited Peru before
Mein Kamph what is your struggle?
@@riverdeep399
Its the name i was given at birth.
Interesting... this Inca civilization resembles Indian civilization, like Children of Sun god. Old Indian dynasties are described as their ancestor is Sun (Surya Vamsha in Sanscrit ). Indian oldest scripts Vedas explain about worshiping thunder god, rain god and treated Rivers as goddesses.
Maybe Native Americans
Even when these "expeditions" happen. they really only spend a few hours or day or two on that site... what do you really think can be found in such a short amount of time... kind of useless unless time is comitted.
Seems like using Landsat imagery that cuts through the vegetation and consulting modern geological maps couldn’t hurt. Most the famous Peruvian/South American hard rock mines have been on reverse thrust faults so if I was looking for a lost mine I’d start with the mapped reverse faults and look for jogs in them. I’d rather have a geologist with me than an archeologist call the archeologist when you find something lol.
@@alexburke1899 could the short period of time just be for SHOW? Maybe they can get enough money from these films to maybe stay longer? And get more indept?
meaning of city of gold...golden culture
Efraim Banares Or city of Sunshine? ☀️
Absolutely beautiful documentary thank you so much for your efforts and hard work to share with amazing gift to all I'm very interested to know the your guide you mantions he is a shaman I really like his energy I'm planning to go if you know his info please share with me 🙂 thankfully apriciate
Awesome
When the driver is told to drink that "beer" -Toma, Toma! says the copilot, ayayayayayay
That beer looks like it'd give them diarrhea
Great shows
Did the Inca build these structures? The Inca tell you themselves that they found these structures .
Litia Kalima . That’s really not what I meant. I’m talking about a civilisation possibly thousands of years older than the Inca. What a strange little mind you have.
@@MarkMiller-zm2th the survivors of Atlantis.
Then you are talking about the right time for ruins of the outposts from the civilization of Atlantis.....
Sylvia Patterson . Possibly, but the ruins are clearly older than what we’re told, same goes for the pyramids and the Sphinx.google Dr Robert Schoch, the geologist that has dated them far older. Graham Hancocks work is eye opening too.greetings from England.
can western history stop portraying themselves as if they discover something it is so frustrating to keep hearing that someone discover blah blah for once can you change the narrative.. this civilization exist and they striving.
That's what I say about Christopher Columbus and America. He didn't discover squat. Just cz history says he did, doesn't make it so.
To me, discovering something is when u discover somewhere that no one has ever seen or stepped on.
Just like when our scientists discovered certain planets, no one knew about them and as far as humans r concern, we've never been there. That 2 me is a discovery.
What says u????
Been to Peru see for yourself the Inka did not build the giant megalithic structures
Pumapunku or Puma Punku (Aymara and Quechua puma cougar, puma, punku door, Hispanicized Puma Puncu) is part of a large temple complex or monument group that is part of the Tiwanaku Site near Tiwanaku, in western Bolivia. Apr 3 2019

Amazing
It's clear the Peruvians should develop more of these ruins for tourism to take some pressure off Machu Pichu. Hope so, Thailand Paul
Wow!
Sir, According to our old Tamil literature "City of Madurai build by pure gold" Which was situated south from Equator" According to Tamil literature " mystical MERU MOUNTAIN 🏔️ was situated on the centre of EARTH 🌎, Holy Kailash was situated center of MERU MOUNTAIN. The city of Thilaiy ( THILAIY VANAM) was situated south from MERU MOUNTAIN 🏔️. The city of ADAKA MADURAI ( ADAKA MEANS GOLD) was situated south from THILAIY VANAM. RAVANA'S ELANGAI WAS SITUATED IN SOUTH OF CITY OF ADAKA MADURAI. MEAN NEAR SOUTH POLE.
