Lonely Planet review for Temple of the Sun

Just above and to the left of the baths is Machu Picchu’s only round building, a curved and tapering tower of exceptional stonework.

The Temple of the Sun is cordoned off to visitors, but you can see into it from above, which is how you'll be approaching it if you take the stairs leading down and to the left from the caretaker's hut.
