Nyangku Tradition In Ciamis: Preserving Heritage And Boosting Local Economy
Traditional leaders carry heirlooms to be washed during the Nyangku traditional procession in Ciamis Regency, West Java, Indonesia, on September 18, 2025. The Nyangku tradition, or the tradition of washing heirlooms left by the Panjalu Kingdom of Prabu Sanghyang Borosngora, is held once a year on the last Monday or Thursday in the month of ''Maulud'' on the Islamic calendar. Apart from maintaining tradition, it also boosts religious tourism visits and stimulates the local economy. (Photo by Ardi Septian/NurPhoto)
