We travel southeast along the Lake Titicaca shore to a pre-Inca site called Amaru Muru, explore this awesome which is believed by some to be an interdimensional gateway and where the seeds of all existence originated. We will take time here to explore the site and surrounding landscape. On our way back to Puno, we visit Chucuito, a place of the Fertility Temple, where we find a rectangular compound of phallic-shaped stones. Here we see the symbol of fertility carved in stone and understand that everything is vibrating in two polarities-male and female, Pachamama (Mother Earth) and the Cosmos, birth and death.
