Abstract
Jos Town, a gem nestled in the captivating landscapes of Nigeria, it is distinguished by its unique rocky terrain. As the world hurtles through the 21st century, the integrity of Jos Town's distinctive aesthetic character is under siege from the relentless forces of urbanization and development. This article seeks to unravel the layers of significance embedded in Jos Town's rocky nature, transcending mere geological marvel to encompass historical, cultural, and environmental dimensions. In doing so, it lays the groundwork for a comprehensive approach to physical restructuring planning, one that delicately balances the imperatives of urban growth with the imperative to safeguard the soul-stirring beauty of Jos Town's rocky landscape.
