Peru Has Floating Islands On A Lake
Seeing an island in the ocean is a common thing to see, but what about a floating island on a lake? Well, Peru has a number of them. The world's highest navigable lake, Lake Titicaca, has a small area where the movable Uros Islands are located. It's safe to assume that nowhere else on the planet is like it.
