One of the most visited and enigmatic destinations in Puno are the floating islands of the Uros. Stay overnight on a reed island with a local family, experience a cultural exchange, live as one of the children of the lake and take impressive photos of the ethereal sunset.
The uros call themselves “The men of black blood” or “sons of the lake” because they can survive on the waters of Titicaca enduring its drastic changes in climate and strong solar radiation.
