<![CDATA[Tourists often experience difficulties in finding tourist destinations in Aceh Province that match their content preferences and are geographically close to their location. This study aims to develop a tourism destination recommendation system in Aceh Province using a Content-Based Filtering approach with the Cosine Similarity algorithm and the Haversine Formula. The dataset consists of 119 tourist destinations, including attributes such as destination name, destination description, and geographical coordinates (latitude and longitude). The research process began with text data preprocessing, which included case folding, punctuation removal, tokenization, duplicate word removal, stopword removal, and stemming. Next, the similarity between destinations was calculated using the Cosine Similarity algorithm based on tourism content descriptions, while the Haversine Formula was applied to measure the geographical distance between the user’s location and the tourist destinations. The results indicate that the developed system is able to provide relevant tourism destination recommendations by simultaneously considering content relevance and geographical proximity. Therefore, the system can assist tourists in selecting destinations that best match their preferences.]]>
