Explore the rich culture, stunning landscapes, and unique traditions of Puno!
Located at an altitude of 3,800 meters above sea level, Puno is one of Peru’s most fascinating and culturally rich destinations. Nestled on the shores of the legendary Lake Titicaca—the highest navigable lake in the world and the largest in South America—Puno offers travelers a perfect blend of natural beauty, ancestral history, and vibrant cultural traditions. For the Andean people, this sacred lake is believed to be the birthplace of the Inca civilization, adding profound spiritual value to every visit.
With INKANET, you’ll uncover the heart of Andean heritage. Puno is celebrated for its colorful folklore, with more than 300 traditional dances passed down through generations. The city truly comes alive each February during the Festival of the Virgin of Candelaria, one of the most important cultural events in all of South America. Thousands of dancers and musicians take to the streets in dazzling traditional costumes, performing age-old rituals in honor of their patron saint.
Just outside the city, you can explore impressive archaeological sites like the Chullpas of Sillustani—towering pre-Inca funerary structures located near the scenic Lake Umayo. These ancient monuments provide a powerful glimpse into the rich cultural legacy that predates even the Inca Empire.
