The Ilave River
The river winds past the town on its way to Lake Titicaca, drawing a strong, curving line across the flat Altiplano and dividing the map into two sides.

The map
About this Ilave map poster
Ilave lies in the Puno Region of southern Peru, on the high Altiplano at an altitude of around 3,800 metres. The town sits beside the Ilave River, which flows across the plain toward Lake Titicaca a short distance to the north. From above, the river curves past the town, and the surrounding land stretches out flat and open to the horizon.
The town is a centre for the Aymara communities of the area, and its streets form a fairly regular grid around a central square, with roads leading out across the plain. A bridge crosses the river, carrying the main road that runs along the shore of Lake Titicaca toward Bolivia.
An Ilave map poster captures the stark simplicity of the Altiplano. The river provides a strong, flowing line, the town's grid forms a compact, orderly patch and the open plain gives the composition space and calm. It is a clear, spare image of a town at the edge of South America's highest large lake.

A central grid
Ilave's streets are laid out in a fairly regular grid around a central square, forming a compact, well-defined shape against the open land around it.
The lake road
The main road running along Lake Titicaca crosses the river at Ilave, making the town a waypoint on the route between Puno and the Bolivian border.
