The Milky Way over Lake Titicaca, Peru

Lake Titicaca is a large, deep lake in the Andes on the border of Bolivia and Peru. By volume of water and by surface area, it is the largest lake in South America. It is often called the "highest navigable lake" in the world, with a surface elevation of 3,812 metres. 

Lake Titicaca is famed for the prettiest sunsets and night skies in the world. Grab a blanket with your favorite drink and be stunned with the night sky, that’s because stargazing at Lake Titicaca can become something of an obsession – the night skies are adorned with thousands of sparkling stars and the elusive Milky Way here at the Peruvian border.
