The impressive Qeswachaka Bridge is located on the Apurimac River about 160 km south of Cusco city.
“Q’eswachaka” is his native name formed by two Quechua words: “Q’eswa”, which means “to braid” and “Chaka”, which means “bridge”. This bridge is special because it is built in an original Inca way made of a special grass (q’oya). The materials and construction techniques have been handed down from generation to generation since the Incas, since the first bridge was built in the 15th century.
