Islands: Uros Floating Islands, Peru

One of the pages from my upcoming book "Islands": Uros Floating Islands, Peru.

"Way up in the mountains of South America you'll find some islands with a difference. They lie on Lake Titicaca, one of the highest lakes in the world. It is a beautiful place of ancient temples and mirror-calm waters, with its western shore in Peru and its eastern shore in Bolivia. Sitting on its surface. meanwhile. are some very special structures made from plants that grow in the lake. These are the incredible Uros floating islands. "
