Lake Titicaca, the highest and largest freshwater lake in the world

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.
