Summary
A new study reveals that the preservation of Yogyakarta's Philosophical Axis, a UNESCO-listed cultural heritage site representing the balance between humans, nature, and God, can successfully integrate tradition with modernity. This approach strengthens local identity amid globalization threats while maintaining its relevance as a center of Javanese culture. The research employed a qualitative method to analyze how conservation efforts can bridge traditional values—embodied in Sri Sultan Hamengkubuwano I's cosmological design—and contemporary demands without compromising historical integrity.
