  Indichuris is an ethno-ecological project of the Quichua community of the Pastaza province, it is located near Puyo, at kilometer 35 of the road to Pomona. To enter the community it is done by a path surrounded by trees such as: heliconias and bromeliads, you have to cross two bridges made of metal cans since there are two streams. And for the most daring, in the upper part we find the so-called "Tarzan Liana", a natural rope that puts emotions to the limit. There we seemed to fly over the immense Amazon jungle. That was another experience that was unforgettable.
