While traveling in South America for nine months, I ended up exploring Lake Titicaca for several days from both the Peruvian and the Bolivian side. I could feel the energy of the lake even while roaming around in the town of Puno. But it was only when I walked to the shores of Titicaca I realized how huge the lake was. It is about 280 meters deep and spread over a surface area of 8,300 sq km (3200 square miles). Running from northwest-to-southeast for 120 miles (190 km), Titicaca is the second largest lake in South America. It is the biggest freshwater lake in the world...

Lake Titicaca is located in the altiplano plateau, the largest plateau in the Andes, on the border of two beautiful countries Peru (to the west) and Bolivia (to the east).
It is one of the special places in South America.
