Uros Taquile (02 Days / 01 Night)

CODE: 5151770003
Uros / Taquile (02 Days / 01 Night)
In the Lake Titicaca are the floating Islands of the Uros, one of Américas most ancient peoples, dedicated to handicraft production, fishing and taxidermy. Taquile is an island with great ethnical and cultural value, as its inhabitants are clearly Quechua and mainly dedicate themselves to handicraft, fishing, light agriculture and tourism, and they are very attached to their ancestral traditions and customs.
There is a handicraft market, where Taquiles textile art stands out. There also are pre-Incan and Incan archaeological sites, with sacred places, such as Mulsina; a ceremonial and ritual center for offerings to the Pachamama (Mother Earth). Without a doubt, Taquile is a magical live culture place.
