Bendung Kali Putih is a simple yet vital irrigation weir tucked away in Plambongan, Tempel, Sleman Regency.
Fed by the waters of Mount Merapi, this operational water structure plays a crucial role in local farming by keeping about 90 hectares of nearby agricultural land perfectly irrigated. Close to this spot, the historic colonial-era aqueduct known as Buk Renteng Van der Wijck spans across the Kali Putih river.
This weir is a favorite quiet resting point for local cyclists and sightseers looking to appreciate historical infrastructure while exploring the scenic, off-the-beaten-path Sleman countryside.
