Qeswachaka The Last Inca Bridge, Andean Technology

The Q'eswachaka is the last Inca bridge still standing, built annually by the Quechua communities using vegetable fibers, just as their ancestors did to connect different communities.
. During the Inca period, the Quechua people built hanging bridges with vegetable fibers across the Andes, connecting one community to another. Q'eswachaka is the last living Inca bridge and is restored every year for cultural and ancestral tradition reasons. The process begins with the resistant vegetable fiber called q'oya, which is used in the construction of the bridge, in this activity all members of the family participate. The process lasts three days with rituals and offerings to Pachamama and the Apus.
