Abstract

Serangan Village has been designated as a tourism village, yet the community lacks awareness of the importance of tourism and has not optimized its tourism potential. Additionally, its development remains conventional. Therefore, improvements are necessary by reorganizing the area to establish a new tourism center. A culinary tourism center is deemed highly suitable for Serangan Village as it promotes local culinary specialties as tourism products while preserving local cultural values. This study aims to design a culinary tourism center model using SWOT analysis and two-dimensional design visualization. The research employed a qualitative approach

Abstract

This study investigates the relationship between nature-based tourism and tourists’ mental health through the concept of green therapy in Bali, a destination renowned for its diverse natural landscapes and wellness traditions. Green therapy is conceptualized as a psychological restoration process derived from direct interaction with natural environments, where elements such as vegetation, forest ambience, flowing water, and natural sounds contribute to stress reduction, emotional regulation, and improved cognitive clarity. Using a qualitative design, data were collected from fifteen tourists through in-depth interviews and focus group discussions, and analysed using thematic analysis to identify core experiential patterns. The findings indicate that engagement with Bali’s natural settings including forest walks, terraced rice fields, meditation, and yoga, significantly enhances emotional well-being, reduces anxiety, and strengthens self-awareness. However, the restorative potential of these experiences is diminished by overtourism and overcrowding in popular destinations. These results underscore the need for sustainable and decentralized destination management that preserves ecological quality while maintaining therapeutic value. The study further suggests integrating green therapy principles into tourism planning to enhance visitor well-being and support long-term sustainable development. Overall, the research contributes empirical insight into how Bali’s natural assets can function as an effective medium for psychological healing.
