In Tegallalang valley, Alas Harum lures Instagrammers to sky-high swings and rope bridges, yet farmers continue cultivating rice as they have for generations. The hillside cascades in green steps, forming a living landscape that is both a visual spectacle and a functioning agricultural system. Even amid the crowds, the valley’s heartbeat remains in the careful balance of water, labour and tradition that sustains its cultural and natural heritage.
