"After damage from heavy rains prompted its closure to travelers in April 2022, northern Peru's Llaqta de Kuélap ruins—one of the largest ancient monuments in the Americas—has reopened to visitors, with limits in place. Located in the Andes Mountains in the country’s Amazonas region, the site has in the last decade or so gained popularity among international visitors, especially as an alternative to the overtouristed Machu Picchu—and is especially impressive for its scope."
