The Inner Baduy are a unique indigenous group deeply rooted in their land’s spiritual and natural environment. This article explores the Inner Baduy (Tangtu) community’s vernacular cultural landscape in Kanekes Village, South Banten, Indonesia, to examine how their cultural values, traditional practices, and environmental stewardship are intertwined with the physical landscape. Drawing from field observations and interviews with the Inner Baduy community, this research seeks to understand their cultural landscape’s socio-cultural and ecological dimensions. The sacredness of the land is manifested through the spatial organization, architecture, and the sustainable relationship between the Baduy people and nature. The study contributes to broader discussions on vernacular architecture, indigenous knowledge systems, and sustainable cultural practices.
