Uros people
The Uros people are an indigenous group living on floating islands made of reeds in Lake Titicaca, which is located on the border of Peru and Bolivia. They have a unique lifestyle that revolves around fishing, hunting, and gathering, as well as crafting items from the reeds that grow in the lake. The Uros have maintained their traditional way of life for centuries, adapting to the challenges of their environment.
The Uros islands are constructed from totora reeds, which are abundant in the lake. The Uros people rely on these reeds not only for building their homes but also for food and transportation. Their culture is rich in traditions, including music and dance, which they share with visitors to promote awareness of their heritage and way of life.
