Nanggung adalah sebuah pedesaan berbukit-bukit  di bagian barat Kabupaten Bogor di mana sebagian besar penduduknya hidup sebagai petani. di masa lalu, dikenal sebagai salah satu penghasil beras di Bogor. Sekarang situasinya telah berubah sejak penambangan emas telah di operasikan di sana, namun, pedesaan ini masih memiliki keindahan alam yang selalu memikat hati, jalan yang berkelok-kelok naik turun bukit sepanjang desa- desa sangat menarik untuk tamasya. Ketika saya berada di sana hampir tengah hari, matahari bersinar terlalu terang membuat setiap pemandangan terlihat bagaikan emas bercahaya.
