Lake Titicaca is the world's highest navigable lake to large vessels, at 3,810 meters (12,500 feet) above sea level in the Andes Mountains of South America. Astride the border between Peru and Bolivia, surrounded by spectacular scenery of Andean
landscapes in one of the most exceptional geographic locations in the highland plateaus, it reminds us of the Scottish highlands or the Patagonia, with a clear crisp blue air and intense sunlight shining on the vast pastures, amidst small hamlets of Quechua and Aymara cultures. |
