The Inca bridge "Queswachaca" is built over the majestic Apurimac River (the god that speaks), located in the province of Canas. The last Inca bridge suffers the deterioration of its material (straw) due to the inclement climate of the highlands, so it requires annual maintenance consisting of a total reconstruction. The reconstruction is the responsibility of the Perccaro, Huinchi, and Qqewe farming communities. The dimension of the bridge is 33 m. long and 1.20 m. wide, the (Ichu) is the material found in the highlands of Peru. Since Inca times the reconstruction is done in 3 days and on the 4th day, the ceremony concludes with a folkloric festival, where you can share the traditions and customs unique in the world.
