The underlying thought is that Bali's legal politics of tourism is built on the values of Hindu religion, customs, local wisdom, and upholding the philosophy of Tri Hita Karana. Bali is culturally, religiously, naturally, and humanly unique, with the foundation of its social-religious organization being the customary village (desa adat). Based on this central idea, the legal issues explored are: (1) How is the construction of legal politics in public policy for tourism development (especially in Tourism Villages) in Bali? (2) What are the legal implications for the tourism villages developed in relation to community welfare? The socio-legal research method is interdisciplinary and "hybrid," which will explain the relationship between law and society in shaping public policy related to tourism villages. The research findings indicate that the legal construction in public policy for the development of tourism villages in Bali is built on a concept of law that is culturally meaningful. On one hand, it is constructed based on state law, and on the other hand, it can be managed by Bali's customary law, such as awig-awig, pararem, and customary village regulations (Peraturan Desa adat). The legal implications for customary villages managing tourism villages in Bali are ambiguous in legal choices, particularly in implementation within customary village areas. However, regardless of the legal choice by the customary villages in Bali, the legal goals of utility, certainty, and justice can serve as benchmarks for forming a law that brings happiness.

Vanaprastha Tourism

In the ever-evolving landscape of global tourism, destinations rich in cultural heritage face the dual challenges of maintaining their unique cultural identities while ensuring economic viability. Bali, known for its holistic traditions, spirituality, and natural beauty, epitomises this balance. Cultural tourism is crucial in preserving and promoting a region's unique heritage, ensuring the sustainability of cultural practices and traditions amidst various challenges. Resilience in cultural tourism empowers communities to protect their heritage from dilution or commodification, ensuring tourism development does not compromise cultural authenticity. However, scholars highlight the pervasive influence of commercialisation in recent tourism practices, which has subtly infiltrated Bali's tourism industry, leading to a shift from rich cultural heritage towards profit-driven ventures. Consequently, Bali's cultural tourism is starting to lose its prominence and relevance. This study aimed to explore and propose a sustainable and holistic form of tourism that can enhance the resilience of Bali's cultural tourism by examining the concept of Vanaprastha Tourism and its relevance to tourism and assessing the potential benefits of implementing Vanaprastha tourism in Bali. The research findings highlight the potential benefits of Vanaprastha tourism, including environmental conservation, cultural preservation, economic diversification, community empowerment, and enhanced well-being for both the host and visitors. The study highlights the importance of blending local wisdom, immersing in the culture, and practising sustainable methods in tourism, as shown by the Vanaprastha Tourism concept.
