Titicaca - Raza Ecuador(Album"Spirit") [14:25]
Lake Titicaca; is a lake located in the Andes on the border of Peru and Bolivia. It sits 3811 m (12500 ft) above sea level, making it the highest commercially navigable lake in the world. By volume of water, it is also the largest lake in South America Lake Maracaibo has a larger surface area, but it is often disregarded because it is directly connected to the sea. The origin of the name Titicaca is unknown. It has been translated as "Rock Puma," as local communities have traditionally interpreted the shape of the lake to be that of a puma hunting a rabbit. "Titicaca" combines words from the local languages Quechua and Aymara. The word is also translated as "Crag of Lead." Locally, the lake goes by several names. Because the southeast quarter of the lake is separate from the main body (connected only by the Strait of Tiquina), the Bolivians call it Lago Huiñaymarca (Quechua: Wiñay Marka) and the larger part Lago Chucuito. In Peru, these smaller and larger parts are referred to as Lago Pequeño and Lago Grande, respectively. The cold sources and winds over the lake give it an average surface temperature of 10 to 14 °C (50 to 57 °F). In the winter (June--September), mixing occurs with the deeper waters, which are always between 10 to 11 °C (50 to 52 °F) Titicaca is notable for a population of people who live on the Uros, a group of 44 or so artificial islands made of floating reeds (totora, a reed that abounds in the shallows of the lake). These islands have become a major ...

A day in Girón (Cuenca, Ecuador) New Video! [03:21]
•ENGLISH Hello folks, Girón is a town located to the southeast of Cuenca City. You get there by traveling about 2 hours by car. In this video, you'll hear a traditional song played by a local band commonly known as "Banda de Pueblo". If you ever visit Ecuador, you'll find these types of bands mostly in the Andean part of my country. Also, in this video, you will see a well-known tourist attraction of Girón which is a small waterfall called "El Chorro". The afternoons in this site are little cold, and for that reason I would suggest you to take a cup of coffe and relax yourself while you start hearing some nocturnal insects. I would be delighted to guide you through this Andean spot, if you are interested, send me an e-mail for more information. edgar.puma@live.lagcc.cuny.edu •ESPANOL Saludos a todos mis coterráneos e hispanohablantes alrededor del mundo.
