Cusco, the jewel of the Inca empire, is a city rich with history and legends. The Incas saw it as the center of the world, where they built impressive temples and grand plazas from enormous stone blocks. You can feel the city’s deep spiritual roots at sacred sites like Sacsayhuamán and the Qorikancha, which were dedicated to the sun god Inti.
