Abstract

The high rate of population growth has caused many problems, one of which is the increase in slum areas which has resulted in a decline in environmental quality, residents' health, and the level of welfare of local residents. So a mature strategy is needed from and involving the community to overcome these problems, both through the development and promotion of agricultural and tourism products. This research aims to identify the potential of slum areas to become tourist villages, one of which is in Bantarsari Bungursari Village, Tasikmalaya City, and reveal the strategies and potential of rural areas in supporting slum areas to become tourist attractions. Data collection used a qualitative descriptive method by asking the community directly about the strategies used to transform slum areas into tourist areas. The research results show that the potential of the tourist village area is natural physical potential in the form of geographical factors that support rural tourism, namely agrotourism and house-building characteristics as well as socio-cultural potential in the form of friendly habits of local residents and good service to tourists. It can be concluded that slum area management can be carried out through the natural physical and socio-cultural potential of the community. 2023 WITPress. All rights reserved.
