The people who live here are amazing and unique in the world because they build their own islands taking advantage of a type of plant that grows in the Lake, called totora. Their origins are somewhat uncertain but those who studied them indicate that their history is prior to the Inca period and that when this culture emerged they progressed proportionally until they conquered all areas of land, for this reason they were forced to adapt to living in the water. that gave them the necessary security and easy access to their main resource, which is fishing.
