charb's question: Hey guys. Where is the Solar Observatory in Machu Picchu?(give a different answer) .
Not far. The Solar Observatory is about 100 m far from the caretakers' houses; after you leave it behind you, keep walking until you will face a maze and in front of it there are the ruins and a tower on the left side, called "Torreón". From there it's a piece of cake to reach the observatory.
