The Andean culture continues to awe the world with its creativity, exemplified by the ‘Q´eswachaka’ Inca bridge that currently connects two villages separated by the Apurimac river. The ‘Q´eswachaka’ Inca bridge is situated in the Canas province, a three-hour drive from the city of Cusco.
The ‘Q´eswachaka’ Inca bridge is constructed using ichu, a type of grass native to the high Andean regions. Each year in June, the local people from the high Andean communities of Ccolla, Qqewe, Huinchiri, and Perccaro replace the grass. This four-day event is marked with traditional Andean rituals and local festivities. VISITS: Inca Bridge, 4 lagoons, Volcano pavilions, Colonial Bridge.
