<![CDATA[The background of this research is the tendency for retribution realization from tourist destinations in Bukittinggi City to be consistently below its target. The study aims to measure the contribution of tourist destinations in optimizing the retribution of the Bukittinggi City Tourism Office. The research uses a descriptive quantitative method, collecting secondary data from the Bukittinggi City Tourism Office (2015-2024) and primary data (interviews and observations). The research objects include the Kinantan Wildlife and Cultural Park (TMSBK) and the Japanese Cave Panorama Park (TPLJ). The results show that the contribution of tourist destinations to retribution is quite significant, with the highest percentage reaching 49.39% in 2024 and an average of 50.51% in the "very good" category. However, this contribution still shows yearly fluctuations and is not yet optimal. The internal management of retribution faces major challenges, including illegal parking and the use of conventional payment systems. This research concludes that the optimization of retribution not only depends on internal performance but also requires a management system that upholds justice, transparency, and public benefit.The implication of this research is the importance of evaluating data to identify strengths and weaknesses in the retribution management system, in order to support the annual achievement of optimal retribution.]]>
