Tourists getting naked at one of Peru’s most iconic cultural sites are facing a crackdown by authorities.<\/h1>\n

The move to step up surveillance at Machu Picchu comes after videos and photos were posted online of foreigners stripping off and streaking across the Incan ruins, prompting a response from the Ministry of Culture.<\/p>\n

They were briefly held in custody and forced to delete naked photographs from their digital camera – but not before it had gone viral on Peruvian social media after it was ‘irresponsibly published to the Internet,’ the police statement says.
\nLast month, a video was posted to YouTube showing a naked couple streaking across Machu Picchu, considered to be a sacred holy site, as a park guard gave chase.<\/p>\n

The couple can be seen running through the grass, holding their clothes in their hands, jumping over the ancient stone walls.<\/p>\n

The incident was filmed by another tourist.<\/p>\n
