Spanning 28 meters in length and hanging 30 meters above the Apurimac River, the Qeswachaka Bridge was a component of the extensive Inca road system (qhapac ñan) leading to the famed Inca City, Machu Picchu. Annually, the bridge is reconstructed by the local populace, following the tradition set by the Incas centuries earlier. At present, it ranks as one of the major tourist draws of Cusco.
