Q'eshwachaka - the last remaining/upkept traditional Incan, Indiana Jones, middle of nowhere, rope bridge. Rebuilt every year in June it sags more than 10 feet by the end of the year but is still strong enough to hold 56 people. After chancing across a mention of it on wikipedia Spike and I decided to go - despite the fact we had no idea where it was and nobody we talked to had ever heard of it.
Despairing of finding useful information in Cuzco or Puno we headed to Sicuani, the town nearest the bridge. From there we only had one option - hire a taxi and make it there ourselves (there being the middle of nowehere). Turned out it does exist - see proof below!
