In Desa Wisata Situ Cangkuang, you’ll find Kampung Pulo, a small village just before the entrance to Candi Cangkuang. Away from the noise of motor vehicles, Kampung Pulo holds historical and unique significance. Inhabited by descendants of Eyang Embah Dalem Arif Muhammad, who played a pivotal role in spreading Islam in the village, this village dates back to the 17th century.

While visiting, take a moment to engage with the locals and learn about their rich history. With only six houses and one mosque, the village’s architectural constraints, symbolizing the legacy of Eyang Embah Dalem Arif Muhammad, make it a truly unique experience.
