Isla de la Luna — Attraction in La Paz

I'll split this review in two parts. First one Temple of the Moon. Compared to Temple of the Sun, Moon Temple is much more preserved and definitely cool place to visit. From here through the top of the island we went to the other side where we stayed for the rest of the day and night. Here starts second part of review. About 20 families lives on the island and our group stay with on of those families. There is no electricity or water on the island. Locals drink boiled water from Lake Titicaca as we do for few hours until they bring bottled water for us from Isla del Sol. For electricity they used ether generator or battery im not sure about it. There was only one shower in "main house". Only extra in my house was electric bulb and i was lucky to have a toilet with running water inside. I say lucky because part of our groups stayed with neighbors where only thing in their house was a bed. No water, not electric bulb and toilet was hole in the ground just outside. There is not a single shop on the island, closest thing to a shop was one woman who was selling some simple things in her house. I'll remember two great things from my stay there. Food was gathered and cooked for us like hour before dinner from our hosts. Second thing was beautiful clear night sky with thousands and thousands of stars and constellations from south hemisphere. Final thoughts i don't regret and I'm satisfied for every moment spent...

La isla de la luna también llamada “Isla Koati”, es una pequeña isla situada en medio de las aguas del Lago Titicaca, una isla que, aunque pequeña (con tan solo 2,8 kilómetros de largo), posee un gran atractivo turístico. Por ser un lugar que cuenta con un excelente clima y que tiene además una interesante historia, sin duda alguna de que vale la pena conocerlo y apreciarlo. La isla de la luna o Koati es considerada como la hermana desconocida de la Isla del Sol la cual está a 8 kilómetros de distancia.

Convirtiéndose así en la segunda Isla de más importancia religiosa y cultural para los Incas.

Este es un lugar de atractiva belleza, lo cual lo hace digno de visitar, y poder disfrutar de tranquilidad y de hermosos paisajes que nos animaran a meditar y reflexionar, y por supuesto pasar todo un día único disfrutando de la espectacular belleza del lago Titicaca para revitalizarnos con maravillosos pensamientos positivos llenos de mucha paz y serenidad. Hoy en día, la isla de la Luna o Koati está habitada por pequeños grupos de familias indígenas de origen quechua y aymara, los cuales se dedican a actividades como la agricultura y el desarrollo del turismo. En especial todas ellas se dedican a la elaboración de llamativas artesanías propias de la localidad, las cuales atraen mucho la atención de los curiosos turistas que visitan y por tanto la convierte en una excelente fuente de ingresos para...

interesting to read the positive and negative reviews. I agree with both. However, like anything else, it is what you make of it. There are a couple of great trails, and two pretty good ruins to look at. As with most other local ruins, they are not yet roped off from the public, so one can actually touch the 2000 year old stones. I personally think the entire...
