TEBING BREKSI

Tebing Breksi merupakan sebuah kawasan bekas tambang yang terletak di Nglengkong, Groyokan, Sambirejo, Prambanan, Yogyakarta. Sejak puluhan tahun lalu kawasan ini merupakan ladang pencaharian para warganya. Sebagian besar penduduk sekitar bahkan sangat bergantung dari kegiatan menambang batu kapur.

Namun, sejak dua tahun lalu (2014) pemerintah melarang penambangan lagi di kawasan Tebing Breksi. Larangan pemda ini muncul, setelah sejumlah peneliti melakukan kajian. Hasilnya, batuan kapur breksi disana ternyata adalah endapan abu vulkanik dari Gunung Api Purba Nglanggeran. Maka, kawasan ini masuk dalam cagar budaya dan harus dilestarikan. Sama halnya dengan keberadaan Gunung Api Purba Nglanggeran, Candi Ijo, Situs Ratu Boko dan sebagainya.

Nah, setelah itu penduduk desa pun tak kehilangan akal untuk tetap mengembangkan potensi wisata Tebing Breksi. Sejak tahun lalu (2015), Tebing Breksi resmi menjadi tempat wisata, sekaligus cagar budaya dan bumi perkemahan yang diresmikan oleh Sri Sultan Hamengku Buwono X.

Semakin ke sini, Tebing Breksi menjadi populer dan hits di kalangan wisatawan. Nah, berikut ini 15 foto perubahan kondisi Tebing Breksi dari awal di kembangkan hingga sekarang.
