Lake Titicaca

Lake Titicaca

My visit to Lake Titicaca was plagued with health problems due to the altitude of the lake (see the account here) and the main city, Puno. As a result, Puno was primarily a place where I received medical attention. My lone venture was to take a tour of the lake, some photos of which lay below.

The Isla Uros, the Floating Islands are made of lashed mats of reeds.

Isla Taquile, one of the islands of Lake Titicaca, where life still reflects a much quieter time.
