Machu Picchu
Lost Inca city complex, probably built in the 15th century; perched on a mountainside about 7,550 feet above sea level; it's purpose and history are shrouded in mystery; the Inca built their living quarters, temples and workshops out of large stones so precisely hewn that they were able to do without mortar; the transport of the huge stones was another astonishing achievement; found by American adventurer Hiram Bingham (probably the original Indiana Jones) in 1911.

Although Machu Piccu was never lost by the Peruvians in the first place, it was inexplicably "found" by an American adventurer.

The Doge's Palace
Building started 1340 to house the councillors who governed Venice; the Doge's Palace was a place for grand receptions and ceremonies, with paintings by the great Venetian masters, set in elaborate guilded frames; construction continued until the 17th century; the facade is characterized by the contrast between the two lower floors--with delicate columns and keel arches broken with tracery--and the upper floor--completely covered with lancet windows set in red and white marble.
