Puno is located in the south of Peru near Cusco, at about 3900m. Its temperate climate, thanks to the presence of Lake Titicaca, allows life to manifest itself in a wonderful way.
The South American camelids are eternal companions of the man of the highlands, as well as the magnificent seeds of quinoa and potatoes, which give rise to the preparation of exquisite dishes. Knowing the world of the Qollas Inkas and their ancient customs of art and dances to gods and natural deities is an experience that renews the soul.
The first Spaniards arrived in Puno around 1550, drawn by the existence of silver in the region. In l573 Viceroy Francisco de Tudela designated Puno as a town, but it wasn't until November 4, 1668, that it was founded as a city.
Many often dub Titicaca Lake as the birthplace of the sun. Incan legends depict it as the emergence point of the first Inca, Manco Capac. Puno serves as a commercial and communications center of the southern Peruvian Andes and trades in the wool of llamas and alpacas.
Steamers regularly ply Titicaca, the world's highest navigable lake, between Puno and Guaqui, Bolivia which is linked by road to La Paz.
