Copacabana, Bolivia🇧🇴 Located on the border with Peru, you can see the beautiful Lake Titicaca from all over the city. It's a tourist destination, but it hasn't been developed that much yet, so it's really cozy and relaxing😌🩵 There are various food options, from local food stalls to restaurants for tourists🍽️ [Access] 3-4 hours by bus from La Paz🚌 [Notes⚠️] - The air is really thin because it's 3,800 meters above sea level (higher than Mt. Fuji!). If you want to do activities such as mountain climbing, it's best to leave some time in your schedule◎ - Even though it's warm during the day, it gets cold in the mornings and evenings, so a jacket is a must. It's a bit tough on the body, but it's a city where you can see a lot of spectacular views! If you're going to Peru by land, it's recommended that you don't just pass through it, but do a lot of sightseeing! #OverseasTravelGuide #Bolivia #Copacabana #LakeTiticaca

#JanuaryGoodPlaces2025 Lake Titicaca, also known as "Lake Titicaca" in Peru and Bolivia, is the highest alpine lake in the world (3,812 meters) navigable by large ships, and is also the largest freshwater lake in South America. After leaving Cusco, I took a bus to Puno, booked a bus ticket to Bolivia, and immediately booked a two-day trip to Lake Titicaca. We visited three islands, Uros, Amantani, and Taquiles. We lived on the second island, in the homes of locals, and ate very healthy wheat porridge, steamed beans, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and pancakes. There was no hot water for bathing at night, and the sky was very dark as soon as night fell. However, there were countless stars at night. It was the first time I waited leisurely for shooting stars to appear. I saw about five shooting stars, and I didn't have time to make a wish. The itinerary for these two days was very rich with hiking activities. The tour guide was very responsible in explaining the local language, culture, and clothing characteristics. I felt that these two days were fulfilling and enjoyable. Figure 1 Taquiles Island Figure 2-3 shows the Uros floating island, which is made entirely of reeds.

#voyagevibes The Uros Islands are artificial islands made of totora grass. The lake surface of Lake Titicaca is 3,812m above sea level, the highest in the world, and like other cities at high altitudes, the sunlight is more intense than it is painful. We visited an island with private homes by boat, changed into traditional costumes in the houses and had a photo shoot. The guide gave us a lot of explanations and gave us a glimpse of life on the island. The traditional costumes, which are a little different from those of the Quechua people, are colorful and cute. The totora boat to the island that serves as a city hall is an additional charge, but we decided to go on board since we were there. The totora boat with a roof is so luxurious that we called it a Mercedes Benz, which is a Titicaca joke.

Peru is located in western South America and is famous for its unique and magnificent natural landscapes, long and profound history and culture, and distinctive cuisine. Among them, Machu Picchu is one of the Seven Wonders of the New World and has been included in many people’s bucket list of must-visit destinations.

Drink hot water and eat more fruits rich in vitamin C. ❤High-altitude areas generally have lower temperatures, large temperature differences between morning and evening, day and night, rapid weather changes, and high ultraviolet intensity in high-altitude areas.

📍Coordinates: (-16.1692517, -69.0919049) Copacabana, Bolivia borders Peru with Lake Titicaca, so it is said to have been influenced by the Inca civilization long ago ☀️ So when you go to Lake Titicaca, you will see statues of the sun god and moon god holding corn guarding Titicaca 😄 Lake Titicaca, where statues were made to commemorate the Inca civilization! This is the place in Bolivia where you can feel the Inca civilization the closest, so if you are planning a trip to Bolivia, I recommend you see it with your own eyes😎 #Overseas travel

Lake Titicaca is the largest freshwater lake in South America and the highest in the world (3,800 meters). It is located on the border between Peru and Bolivia. It is a jointly owned freshwater lake and a navigable lake. If you want to visit this place, you can go to Puno, where there are many local tours to Lake Titicaca for two days and one night. I would recommend friends who want to go there to stay in Puno for two to three days first, because this place is more than 3,800 meters above sea level, and it is very easy to get altitude sickness. In addition, the temperature difference between day and night is very large, so let your body adapt first before going to Lake Titicaca. For a two-day, one-night tour, the tour guide will arrange for everyone to stay in the houses of the island residents. Remember to bring warm clothes, because the temperature at night can drop to several degrees below zero. Although the residents prepared three thick blankets for me, I was too cold to fall asleep. The main purpose of the trip is to hike and enjoy the entire trip and lake view.

An ethnic group living on Lake Titicaca, a lake on the border between Bolivia and Peru, at an altitude of over 3,800m. The "Uros Islands" floating on the lake They are made of "straw" called totora, and are a collective name for about 40 floating islands. Most people land on the Uros Islands as part of a tour. The boat trip departs from the pier and takes about 40 minutes. There are totora floating along the way, so the trip moves relatively slowly. As soon as we land, the tour guide will show us a large board and give us an overview of Lake Titicaca and the Uros Islands in English and Spanish. #Peru #LakeTiticaca #EthnicGroup #UrosTribe

This is a traditional way for coach to crossing the river at Peru. Driving the coach to the special boat by a skilled driver, that is not easy task. Whole coach will be dropped into river by inaccurate calculation. I can see how hard for this training. #peru # Bolivia

On the Kayao Plateau at the junction of Bolivia and Peru, there is the world's largest plateau freshwater lake. Such a floating island completely woven from reeds faces the sun and the lake. There is no sound except the natural sound. Pull the children to go boating together, play with nature, play with the children, completely empty, high? nonexistent. Its name is a bit strange: Lake Titicaca

Once upon a time there was a floating island with a reed that was small to the island that was not shown on the map... The blue plateau of the lake, the crispy reed, the footsteps of the boat, the straw chair, and the three-year-old hand. The bear child who has succeeded in the mouth... The so-called years are so good.

Looking for a piece of reed, stacking up a floating island, covering a few cottages, raising a few fish, ducks, rowing their own boats, spending 10 minutes to go to the opposite side of the island to buy two bags of noodles and the way to the neighbors said that the leisure here is not extravagant Time is not busy, people are not anxious. The smile here is overflowing from life... ##
