The Uros Islands

The Uros Islands are 30 floating thatch islands on Lake Titicaca. They were created by the Uros tribe of reeds growing on the lake.

According to legend, the Uros Indians were forced to flee here from the Inca Pachacutec who pursued them. From reed they build not only islands, but also houses, boats, make souvenirs and even eat it.

Here, tourists will be able to get acquainted with the life and culture of local residents who fish, hunt birds, grow vegetables in local beds, and decorate a Christmas tree for the New Year in winter.
