Abstract
The current sustainable development that the Indonesian government is paying attention to is the development of the tourism sector, one of which is establishing the Alas Purwo National Park (TNAP) as a National Tourism Development Area (KPPN). The determination of the TNAP area as a tourist attraction at the national level opens opportunities and a driving force for the TNAP buffer villages to become a development target that focuses on community empowerment and regional development based on regional resource potential. This study aims to analyze the potential objects and tourist attractions in the TNAP buffer village and to find out the perception and readiness of the community towards tourism development in the buffer village. The results of the analysis show that the TNAP buffer village has potential resources that are feasible to be developed as tourist objects and attractions. There are villages that have ODTW potential, including 3 villages with very potential (SP), 1 village potential (P), 4 villages with less potential (KP), and 4 villages that do not have ODTW potential. Tourism development must provide space for people around tourist objects to participate in tourism. The results of the assessment of the perceptions and readiness of the TNAP village community for tourism development illustrate that the community agrees with tourism development in the village. Communities involved in tourism development can respond positively in supporting tourism development activities.

Summary
The Regional Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJMD) of Banyuwangi Regency is developing the region's leading sectors, one of which is the tourism sector. The Banyuwangi Regency Government makes the tourism sector a leading development sector and pays great attention to the development of tourism potential in each region (PKB, 2017). The development of the Banyuwangi Regency is based on the Indonesian Government's tourism plan, establishing the Alas Purwo National Park (TNAP) area as a National Tourism Development Area (KPPN) and a leading tourist area. The TNAP area, which was declared as KPPN, is still experiencing pressure and threats caused by the excess and illegal activities of the buffer village community towards the use of resources in the TNAP area as well as the expansion of land use by the community (Balai TNAP, 2015). Report Based on the Balai TNAP (2015), threats that occur in the TNAP area include taking animals and flora, which are tourist attractions in the TNAP area.
