The ancient center of the great Inca Empire, Cusco, lies in the southeastern Andes. Its name in Quechua means “navel of the world”. According to legend, the city was founded by the first Inca, Manco Cápac, known as the Son of the Sun, and his wife Mama Ocllo, who emerged from the mysterious waters of Lake Titicaca in Puno.
