<![CDATA[The melukat tradition is a purification ceremony for the soul and body, with water as the primary medium. Currently, the melukat tradition has become a trend as a self-healing experience, leading to an increase in visits. This has the potential to diminish the sanctity of the penglukatan cultural landscape. This study aims to map the locations of the penglukatan cultural landscape, identify the characteristics of the cultural landscape, and analyse supporting factors from biophysical, socio-cultural, economic, and legal aspects. Additionally, this study provides recommendations for sustainable tourism development using the SWOT method. The qualitative research methods employed include interviews, field observations, and literature studies. Nine penglukatan sites were identified, categorized based on management by traditional villages and individuals. The identification using 11 cultural landscape elements shows that all locations share similarities, such as the Tri Mandala spatial concept. The supporting factors from biophysical, socio-cultural, economic, and legal aspects are crucial for the development of the cultural landscape, enabling the formation of new penglukatan sites in the Tukad Penet Watershed. The strategic development recommendations for achieving sustainable tourism include the provision of healing spaces with disaster-resistant architecture, data-driven development, and community involvement in enforcing customary regulations with strict sanctions.]]>
