EXPLORING THE "FLOATING ISLANDS" OF LAKE TITICACA - THE HIGHEST "NAVIGABLE" LAKE IN THE WORLD !

Lake Titcaca is the most noteworthy lake in South America and it is considered the most noteworthy "safe" lake in our reality.

It sits at an amazing 3812m above ocean level and it's very colossal. When we arrived, we thought "Gracious, so this is the thing that the Sea of the Andes looks like..." and it genuinely closely resembled so.

The shady skies were carefully edging the apparently interminable lake here and there making it hard to differentiate between these different common domains."Titicacans" even have their own the identification stamp !

We took a little vessel withdrawing from a little Bolivian town called Copacabana (better believe it, similar to the celebrated sea shore in Brazil) and set out to investigate a few islands which were found close by.

These islands were an unadulterated satisfaction to investigate and we invested a large portion of our energy in an island called "Isla del Sol".

This island was extremely decent, tranquil and, shockingly, brimming with vegetation - recollect that, we were remaining at 3812m above ocean level...an height at which you will discover just stone and snow in pretty much every other continent.However, what makes lake Titicaca very unique aren't it's normal islands. No, what makes it uncommon are it's man made "gliding islands".

We discovered that lake Titicaca was and still is home to a few old Bolivian and Peruvian clans, among which the most renowned are the Uru people.It is accepted that these indigenous individuals started from the profundities of the Amazon and have in the long run shown up to like Titicaca numerous hundreds of years prior.

They have actually made themselves many little islands utilizing totora reed, and they have been continually living on them from that point onward.

Despite the fact that they made a few changes in regards to the manner by which they constructed and supported their islands and houses, their lifestyle has remained for all intents and purposes equivalent to it was from the earliest starting point.
