Visit the islands of Lake Titicaca

A sense of vastness, of the infinite, is the feeling one experiences when taking a boat across the waters of Lake Titicaca, in Puno. The lake is so big that you can feel like you’re in the middle of a sea, as you spot islands where customs and traditions have remained unchanged for hundreds of years. 

 

A tour of the lake should include the Uros Islands, made entirely from reeds; Taquile, an island where the weavers have achieved worldwide renown; and Amantani, where it is possible to get away from everything and simply relax. 

 

Here, the sunrise and sunset are indescribable, while the night is filled with stars that appear so close you think that you might almost be able to touch them. The islands of Lake Titicaca offer a magical invitation.
