Abstract

Heritage tourism is a strategic sector in Bali’s regional development; however, its management in sacred areas such as Pura Besakih presents complex governance challenges. The urgency of this study lies in the dual function of Pura Besakih as a religious center and a cultural tourism destination, which requires public policies that are sensitive to cultural and spiritual values. This study aims to analyze the governance of heritage tourism at Pura Besakih from a public administration perspective, focusing on the role of government, institutional coordination, and community participation. The research draws on theories of public policy, public governance, and sacred public space. A qualitative approach with a case study design was employed, utilizing in-depth interviews, field observation, and document analysis. The findings indicate that heritage tourism management at Pura Besakih remains largely administrative, with fragmented institutional coordination and limited community involvement in decision-making processes. These results highlight the need for a more collaborative and sustainable governance model to preserve the sacredness and long-term sustainability of the site. Keywords: Heritage Tourism, Public Governance, Pura Besakih.

Abstract

Bali’s tourism development has historically relied on cultural heritage as a fundamental pillar of destination development and a key driver of regional economic growth. However, the expansion of mass tourism has intensified cultural commodification, which poses significant risks to the sacred values, symbolic meanings, and social legitimacy of indigenous communities as the rightful custodians of cultural heritage. This article aims to analyze the development of heritage tourism in Bali from a Public Administration perspective, particularly within the framework of cultural governance and sustainable tourism policy. This study employs a qualitative approach through a systematic literature review of reputable national and international journals, as well as relevant public policy documents. The analysis is linked to public administration theories, particularly collaborative governance and sustainable public management, to examine the roles of state and non-state actors in cultural tourism governance. The findings indicate that heritage tourism can serve as a strategic public policy instrument for cultural sustainability when it is managed collaboratively, places indigenous communities at the center of decision-making processes, and is supported by regulations that are sensitive to local values such as Tri Hita Karana. Policy implications highlight the need to strengthen local government capacity as facilitator, regulator, and mediator in balancing economic, social, and cultural interests in an equitable manner. Keywords: Bali, Cultural Governance, Heritage Tourism, Public Administration, Sustainable Tourism.

Abstract

Heritage tourism in Bali is a strategic sector that not only underpins the regional economy but also plays a critical role in safeguarding the cultural identity of local communities. Bali is globally recognized for its rich tangible heritage, including temples, traditional architecture, and customary villages, as well as its intangible heritage, such as religious rituals, performing arts, and local craftsmanship. This study aims to analyze the governance dynamics of heritage tourism in Bali by highlighting the roles of local communities, government policies, and the pressures of globalization and cultural commodification. The research adopts a qualitative approach through a literature review and case study analysis of key destinations, including Besakih Temple, Tanah Lot, Uluwatu, Penglipuran Village, and traditional performances such as the Kecak and Barong dances. The findings indicate that heritage tourism generates significant economic value through job creation and the growth of the creative economy, while simultaneously strengthening Bali’s cultural diplomacy at the international level. However, challenges such as overtourism, unequal benefit distribution, and environmental degradation necessitate a more sustainable management framework. The strategies identified include strengthening community-based tourism, enforcing strict development regulations, educating tourists on Balinese cultural values, and leveraging digitalization for heritage promotion and preservation. By adopting a holistic, community-centered approach, heritage tourism in Bali can function as a scalable instrument for sustainable development while maintaining cultural authenticity.

Abstract

The rapid development of urban tourism in Bali has boosted economic growth, but has also triggered complex challenges such as waste issues and cultural heritage degradation. Waste management in Bali's urban tourism areas still faces structural challenges, ranging from limited infrastructure capacity, weak inter-agency coordination, to low participation by the community and tourism businesses. This study aims to analyze the role of public administration in managing urban tourism through soft tourism and slow tourism approaches as sustainable development strategies based on cultural preservation (heritage tourism). Using qualitative methods with literature review and policy analysis, this study examines regulations and collaborative practices between government, communities, and industry. The analysis is conducted within the theoretical framework of good governance, collaborative governance, and sustainable public management. The results indicate that strengthening collaborative-based governance improves waste management effectiveness and supports equitable tourism. From a good governance perspective, the principles of transparency, accountability, and public participation still need to be strengthened, particularly in waste management in urban tourism areas. Soft and slow tourism approaches have proven relevant as policy instruments for maintaining a balance between economic growth, environmental sustainability, and cultural heritage protection. This research recommends the importance of cross-sectoral policy integration and strengthening regional institutional capacity to achieve sustainable urban tourism governance. Keywords: Bali, Public Administration, Urban Tourism, Waste Management, Soft Tourism

Abstract

Kuta Beach, one of Bali's most iconic coastal destinations, faces severe environmental challenges due to the rapid growth of tourism and inadequate waste management, often leading to a "plastic apocalypse" scenario, especially during the monsoon season. This study analyzes the relationship between high tourist influx and the accumulation of marine debris, which is heavily dominated by plastic waste generated from both tourism activities and seasonal ocean currents. The research highlights that the traditional "collect-haul-dispose" system is inefficient to handle the volume of waste, which significantly reduces the beach's aesthetic appeal and threatens marine ecosystems. Using a descriptive qualitative approach, this research evaluates the role of stakeholders, including government and local communities, in implementing cleaner, sustainable waste management strategies. The findings suggest that a comprehensive, circular economy approach, combined with stricter, eco-friendly infrastructure, is necessary to maintain Kuta Beach's sustainability as a top tourist destination. Keywords: Waste Management, Kuta Beach, Tourism Impact, Plastic Pollution, Sustainable Tourism, Bali.

Abstract

Heritage tourism is one of the main pillars of tourism development in Bali, oriented not only toward economic growth but also toward the preservation of cultural, social, and environmental values. This study aims to analyze the management of heritage tourism in Bali from a Public Administration perspective, focusing on the role of local government in policy formulation, inter-actor coordination, and public value creation. This research employs a qualitative approach through literature review and policy analysis. The theoretical framework is based on the concepts of Good Governance, New Public Service, Collaborative Governance, and Public Value. The findings indicate that the success of heritage tourism management in Bali is highly dependent on transparent, participatory, and accountable governance, as well as collaboration among government institutions, traditional communities, the private sector, and other stakeholders. The government’s role extends beyond regulation to include facilitation and mediation in balancing economic interests with cultural preservation. This study concludes that public value oriented heritage tourism management can support sustainable tourism development and strengthen Bali’s cultural identity.
