The Titicaca Lake on the Copacabana side is quieter and less commercialized than the Puno side. However, the weather was not very good during the two nights we stayed in Copacabana, so we did not take a boat tour of the lake. It was still beautiful to watch from the shore, but the wind was a bit strong.

This lake is a very famous natural lake in the local area and even in Peru. It is very large. There is a grass island in the center of the lake. We did not go to the island. It is said that this island is a resort and attracts many tourists to vacation here.

The scenery of the lake is very beautiful, and there are many very distinctive hotels and resorts here. It is a very relaxing place. There are not many tourists and it is relatively unpopular, but the scenery is really good.

We took a tourist bus from Cusco to Puno, and booked accommodation on Isla Khantatai, a floating island in the Uros Islands. We were picked up by a car and taken to the dock, and a small electric boat came to pick us up. We first bought tickets at a small pavilion on the lake, and then arrived at the floating island where his family lived 20 minutes later. They all stepped directly on the reeds barefoot. It seemed that they had always been like this, so their feet would not hurt. Once we got on the island, it was evening, and the light was very good. There were beautiful scenery everywhere for taking pictures: the island, the reed room, the hammock, the chair, the observation deck, and a cat. Dinner came at 18:30, which was chicken, tomatoes and tortillas. There were only three of us tourists on the island tonight, so it was very quiet. The next day, after breakfast, we took his family&#39;s boat to make a circle on the lake, and left after lunch.

Driving to the ruins, the scenery along the way is very beautiful. The ruins are a noble or royal cemetery with a very long history. While the scenery here in the cemetery is very beautiful, the feeling of desolation also makes people feel deeply.

Puno Sillustani is the site of a group of funeral towers and the most mysterious historical site in the whole of Puno. The remains of many ancient emperors are buried here. Several tall funeral towers are very abrupt. The feng shui here should be very good. It is backed by mountains and has a clear and wide river in front. The scenery is very beautiful.
