What is special about the Uros Islands?
They are man-made islands built of floating bundles of reeds on Lake Titicaca, the large, high-altitude mountain lake on the border of Peru and Bolivia. The reed bundles are fairly thick, at least 1 or 2 meters (3 to 6 feet), and support considerable weights on their floating mats. The reeds gradually rot and sink into the lake, and new bundles are constantly added on top to maintain the islands. Some native boats are built of the same reeds (totora plant), as are homes and other structures that are regularly raised.The Uros Islands are named for the Uros, the indigenous tribe that builds them. As many as 2000 natives live on the 42 islands, which are situated in the Bay of Puno in the Titicaca National Preserve.
