The floating islands of Uros, are artificial islands made of totora. (Aquatic plant that grows inside Lake Titicaca) It would take us about 25 minutes to the arrival of those islands from Puno’s port. There we’ll get to know their customs, traditions, living and adversity against modernization oddities. They will tell us their intertwining ways with the totora in order to keep their artificial islands. Today there are over 80 islands of this type. We’ll visit 2 of them.
