" GREEN CANYON "
• Understanding a place of recreation, one that we think of is a place that aims to refresh the fatigue of work or studies that are being or have been carried out. It is true, after experiencing the stress of the hustle and bustle of the work we do and the demands that are always there, of course doing recreation is the best choice so that the brain and mind are refreshed and ready to face the day.
Green Canyon is located at the Kertayasa Village, in the Ciamis Regency, West Java Province, about 31 km or 45 minutes drive from Pangandaran Beach. Originally called “Cukang Taneuh”- the local Sundanese meaning for Soil Bridge- Green Canyon has a 3 meters wide bridge made up of soil above the twin cliffs on both river banks.
This natural wonder is surely a spectacular scene that you will not find anywhere else. The name Green Canyon is believed to have been dubbed by a French tourist who came to the location in 1993. It is said that the clear green water of the river and the abundant green moss on the cliff had given it its popular name.
Green Canyon is formed from the process of dissolving limestone from an underground river that flows between crevices and crevasses of the rock. This process lasts for thousands of years so that it forms canyons and penetrates the karst rocks to form beautiful ornaments such as stalactites and stalagmites.
The water of the Cijulang River that crosses the Green Canyon is very clear with abundant moss so that it affects the color of the water to Tosca green, this is also the reason Cukang Taneuh was introduced with the branding name Green Canyon.
