Tradition. A suspension bridge (local name: " Sasak Gayot ") is located on the Cibeet River linking the Nambo and  Aria hamlets ("dusun") in Bingkeng village ("desa"), Dayeuhluhur District ("kecamatan"), since 1970. The bridge is 50 meters long and 1 meter wide, with footing made from woven bamboo and the handle is hung with alternating wires on the left and right sides at both ends of the bridge. The suspension bridge is very vital for the residents of RW 01 Nambo hamlet, which is as the only access to the center of the village of Bingkeng and the community's economic path that is used daily in selling crops, as well as traveling to the center of Bingkeng Village. On  the banks of the Cibeet river there are also tombs of several traditional figures: The cultural tradition "Babarit kupat" ("sedekah ketupat") or "babaritan" is an annual traditional ritual program of the Sundanese which is held on the same day, month and place every year before the beginning of the month of Maulud. This program is a form of gratitude for the welfare of the village for the adequacy of food and beverages, in addition to asking to be freed from all kinds of disasters such as earthquakes, epidemics, floods and hurricanes. Almost all villagers in Dayeuhluhur District carry out this  tradition, in which citizens bring food in the form of ketupat to be hung on a pole prepared by Kokolot Lembur or village elders, and then the elders lead the ritual and pray for salvation and blessing, not only for all local villagers but also for the country Indonesia. Then all the ketupats were eaten at the place, and there were also some that were distributed to the people who passed the road. For the Cijeruk Village area, the event is centered on the Cibeet River Bridge, while in Kutaagung Village is carried out at the village boundary and in  West Panulisan Village in Sumanding Pendey Hamlet. The Cibeet river has a "Keymaster" (juru kunci) to guard its spirituality. In "Dayeuhluhuran" (Sundanese Religion), this river is sacred. As of 2014, the key is held by Ceceng Rusmana. Geography.
