Floating on the water for nearly a thousand years and inhabited by hundreds of residents, why is this continent made of grass?

If I say that there is a continent made of reed grass floating on the water, many people may be very surprised and don't believe that such an island exists. But there is actually an island, which is located on the surface of Lake Titicaca in Peru and has been floating on the water for a long time. What are the stories about this magical island? Let me explain it to you in detail:

This small island made of reeds appeared because the local residents built it to escape the war. At that time, the Urus people here were often invaded by the neighboring Incas. Under unbearable circumstances, the clever Urus people combined with the local reeds to build such a magical island.

At first, they just made a haystack like a boat out of reeds and floated on the water to avoid being chased by the Incas. With the passage of time, the scattered haystacks floating in the water gradually became pieces of haystacks. Later, people simply built their own houses on it, raised livestock and poultry, and planted some crops needed for daily use. Of course, people may worry about whether this haystack can really bear so many heavy objects that it can't beat the smart people in our Urus.

In later haystacks, they not only increased the width, but also increased the thickness several times. The thickness of the thickest haystack can reach 1.5m ... so even the haystack can bear the weight above, so the Urus people have completely bid farewell to land life and started? Floating on the water? That day. It is not only more conducive to irrigating crops, but also better able to live here without being disturbed by outsiders.

Do people still live in this area today? Floating continent? In fact, many people here want to live their own lives because they are tired of secular disputes. Therefore, I choose to live in a place where I can live happily, and now it has become a tourist attraction that countless people yearn for.
