| Puno lies on the shores of Lake Titicaca, one of South America's largest lakes and the highest navigable lake in the world. In the National Reserve of Lake Titicaca we visit Uros Ccapi. These are considered to be the last authentic floating islands, less commercial and little visited. The Uros are descendants of one of the oldest cultures in South America. We then head to Taquile Island. Disembarking at a secluded part of the island, we explore a scenic and less touristy area of Taquile Island. We then hike along a pre-Inca trail with spectacular landscapes of the island, visiting families of weavers to learn about their textile art and symbolism. |
