Where are the floating islands in Peru?
They are called floating islands, but where are they? I can not find on maps … what places close to? How far is far from Cuzco? Are there hotels that you can stay on this island? If these are man-made reed islands Floating built, can you please give some more information?
The Uros Indians of Lake Titicaca to the islands out of reed. When I say islands I refer to the islands, not just boats. Shank to be stacked to build their houses above them in small family groups (4 or 5 houses per island). The city of Cusco is about 200 km from the islands Uros Floting straight, but this is high in the Andes, so the roads are very straight.
