PUNO & LAKE TITICACA
Puno was the territory of the Tiahuanacos (800 A.D.
- 1200 A.D.)
who were the highest cultural expression of the Aymara people that
established themselves in what is today Peru and Bolivia. The Incas
took over these lands in the fifteenth century, and the Spanish,
attracted by the mining industry developed there, left an important
Colonial legacy throughout the entire area.
Today, the city of Puno (3,287 masl), which lies on the shores of
Lake Titicaca, the highest navigable lake in the world, is the folklore
capital of Peru and the site of the Feast of the Virgen de la
Candelaria. In the outskirts, you can visit the spectacular Chullpas
de Sillustani, a complex of impressive burial towers built by the
Kollas
The lake contains numerous islands whose inhabitants continue to
live as their ancestors have in custom and tradition. The Uros an
example of this; this people group lives on "floating islands" that
they have artificially made entirely of totora reeds, and they
navigate in their traditional boats also made out of totora reeds.
Taquile, Suasi, and Amantani are knows for their kindness of their
residents, their ancestral skill in weaving, their pre-Columbian
constructions, and lovely countryside.
A landscape of contrasts generated by the Altiplano and the
highest navigable lake in the world, surrounded by a living culture.
The perfect destination for visiting islands, traveling across
peninsulas and various forms of sailing. Travel from Lima by air or
by bus.
