Titicaca, The Lake Where the Sun Was Born (Titicaca, El Lago Donde Nació El Sol)
There are locations across the world that are shrouded in great mysticism. Whether because of their history or because magical things occurred there, these places carry the essence of myths and legends that make them special. Between Argentina, Bolivia, Chile and Peru, a great civilization spread in the 13th Century, ruling over a population of 10 million people. This empire – the Inca Empire, to be exact – was said to have been born in the mystical lake of Lake Titicaca. Even the Sun itself is said to have been forged in this incredible lake if the legends are to be believed. In this episode, we find out more about how the ancient founders of the Incas came to existence and how the lake has evolved over the centuries.Transcript of this episode is available at: https://podcast.lingomastery.com/listen/624
