Summary
Indonesia is an archipelago that has biodiversity potential that has the opportunity to be developed as a tourist attraction. West Java Province is one of the areas in great demand as one of the top lists as a family vacation destination, besides Bali and Yogyajarta. This is in line with West Java BPS Data (2019) which shows an increase in visits every year in the last 5 years, namely in 2014 visited by 48.894823 people, in 2015 visited by 57,401,977 people, in 2016 visited by 60.483381 people, in 2017 visited by 61,682,389 people, and in 2018 65.896063 people were visited. Bandung Regency in 2016 ranks first with the highest number of visits in the province of West Java (6,450,468 people), and dropped to fourth in 2017 The Chairman of PHRI said the decline in domestic visits was due to infrastructure development on the Jakarta-Cikampek toll road, while foreign visits declined due to lack of innovation from tourist destinations and the occurrence of competition with other countries in Asia (Halim, 2017)
