LOVING PUNO`S DAY:
NOVEMBER 4TH
“Puno la Capital folklórica de
America” is turning one anniversary more tomorrow. Located at 12 560 ft. or
3830 masl in beside Lake Titicaca.
Seeing back in time the bay of Puno nearby
the Sacred Lake of the Incas was inhabited 2 millenniums B.C. Thus our
ancestors, Caluyo people, Uros, Puquinas, Pucaras, Collas, Lupacas, Incas,
Spanish Colonial period and today`s Puno.
This
celebration`s basically rooted in the Colonial times, September 7-9 of 1668. when the infamous Spanish viceroy Conde de Lemos established the current Puno`s downtown there
is the cathedral.
Puno,
generous homeland of our Ancestors; cradle of Quechua and Aymara peoples named also South America`s Folkloric
Capital, for us puneños is more than it, it`s land of hard-working men and
women from Desaguadero in
the border with Bolivia to Juliaca city in the northern area…Puno with its dances
and precious treasures mystically protected by our Ancient mountains called Apu Cancharani and Apu Azuguini.
There`re 300k
inhabitants Puno city but Puno region has about 1.6 M people, in accordance to
the last census.
We speak
Spanish, Aymara and Quechua.
Puno is
the administrative center of its 13 provinces.
With some
challenges and many opportunities in this new century.
