Nearly 900 tourists remain stranded near Machu Picchu after PeruRail suspended train services due to protests in the Cusco region. Demonstrators are blocking routes over disputes surrounding the concession of tourist buses that ferry visitors to the site. Authorities say 1,400 tourists have already been evacuated, but tensions remain high as the conflict threatens Machu Picchu’s reputation as one of the New Seven Wonders of the World.
