This specialty food is primarily known to residents of Pupuan and Penebel sub-districts and is traditionally prepared during special occasions such as Ulihan and Nyepi rituals. Beyond its cultural significance, entil represents an untapped potential for culinary tourism development in the region. This research employs a descriptive qualitative method to explore the meaning and philosophy of entil in depth while examining its potential as a culinary tourism attraction. Data sources are divided into primary and secondary data, with collection techniques including literature studies, interviews, and direct observation. Data analysis focuses on qualitative information from literature and interviews using narrative and discourse analysis. The research applies Roland Barthes' food evolution/structuralist theory to understand the formation of philosophical meanings that reflect symbolic and ritual values in food. The results indicate that entil embodies three primary meanings: historical significance, cultural identity, and potential for creative economy development through culinary tourism. In the philosophy of the Tabanan people, entil is believed to be an offering to God during the Ulihan ceremony and is considered a "souvenir" for the god Pitara/ancestors when returning to heaven. This research also highlights how entil can serve as a unique selling proposition for culinary tourism in Tabanan, contributing to sustainable tourism development while preserving local culinary heritage.</p> Owen Pratama, Billy Tanius, Ni Ketut Veri Kusumaningrum ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://www.ojs-journey.pib.ac.id/index.php/art/article/view/237 Mon, 30 Jun 2025 09:19:36 +0000 Commercial Signage In Beachwalk Kuta: A Linguistic Landscape Approach To Tourist Engagement https://www.ojs-journey.pib.ac.id/index.php/art/article/view/244 <p>This study aims to examine the linguistic meanings embedded in outdoor commercial signage displayed on banners at various outlets in Beachwalk Shopping Center, Kuta. Employing a qualitative research approach, this study adopts the framework of linguistic landscape analysis to explore how language is used in public commercial spaces. Data was collected through photographic documentation using a smartphone, capturing a variety of banners present in the shopping center. The collected data were then analyzed using Multimodal Discourse Theory proposed by Kress and Van Leeuwen (2006) and Leech’s (1983) Theory of Meaning to identify the underlying linguistic and semiotic elements. The findings reveal that the linguistic expressions found in the commercial banners convey conceptual, connotative, and affective meanings. Furthermore, these banners reflect emotions, aspirations, persuasive strategies, and behavioral representations of business owners or advertisers. The study highlights the role of linguistic landscape in shaping consumer perceptions and its potential implications for tourism and commercial branding in public spaces.</p> Luh Mega Safitri ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://www.ojs-journey.pib.ac.id/index.php/art/article/view/244 Mon, 30 Jun 2025 09:20:23 +0000 The Excellence Of ITDC Nusa Dua Bali As A World-Leading Mice Tourism Venue https://www.ojs-journey.pib.ac.id/index.php/art/article/view/243 <p>MICE is a promising tourism industry sector in Indonesia, driven by global business growth and the need for companies to hold meetings, incentives, and business trips.

However, marketing efforts largely focus on fresh fruit, resulting in underutilization of surplus or downgraded oranges rejected for size, shape, or color. This surplus, especially during peak harvests, leads to price drops and reduced farmer income. This study addresses the issue by developing a value-added product, Kintamani orange jelly candy as an innovative souvenir aligned with Bali's culinary tourism. Using a qualitative descriptive method and simple experimental design, three gelling agents (seaweed agar, cornstarch, and commercial jelly powder) were tested to find the best formulation for taste and texture. Sensory evaluation by 70 untrained panelists measured preferences across seven attributes: chewy and soft texture, taste, aroma, color, shape, and aftertaste, using a five-point hedonic scale. Product C, made with commercial jelly powder, was most preferred for its soft, chewy texture and pleasant flavor and aroma, though improvements in shape and color were needed. Product A received moderate acceptance, while Product B rated lowest in all categories, indicating a need for reformulation. The findings highlight the potential of Kintamani orange jelly candy as a strategy to reduce fruit waste and enhance the economic value of local produce. It also offers a promising new culinary souvenir to promote Batukaang Village within Bali’s tourism sector. Further research is recommended to refine formulations, broaden market reach, and evaluate commercial feasibility on a larger scale.</p> Billy Tanius, Heru Pramudia, Iwan Surjawan ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://www.ojs-journey.pib.ac.id/index.php/art/article/view/252 Mon, 30 Jun 2025 09:23:03 +0000 Increasing Einvite.id's Brand Awareness To Boost Sales https://www.ojs-journey.pib.ac.id/index.php/art/article/view/218 <p>This research focuses on PT.

This study aims to map conflicts involving local communities in tourism destination development through a systematic literature review approach of international academic publications. The results of the thematic analysis identified five main conflict categories: (1) conflict and resistance analysis, (2) perceptions, attitudes, and responses, (3) conflicts due to tourism development, (4) conflict resolution, (5) identity issues, and (6) online resistance. This study fills the gap in the literature by developing a classification of conflicts based on actors and issues, and highlighting forms of community resistance, both overt and symbolic. The findings reinforce the urgency of tourism planning based on social justice and inclusive participation for long-term sustainability.</p> Masroulina Sevtiani, Taufik Abdullah ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://www.ojs-journey.pib.ac.id/index.php/art/article/view/260 Mon, 30 Jun 2025 09:25:09 +0000 Jamu Preservation And Purchase Intention: Innovation Strategies In Acaraki Jamu https://www.ojs-journey.pib.ac.id/index.php/art/article/view/261 <p>This study explores innovation as a strategy to preserve traditional jamu and increase consumer interest in the modern era, focusing on Acaraki Jamu as a case study. Using a qualitative descriptive method, data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews with five informants (a marketing manager, a barista, and three young consumers), and documentation. The findings show that Acaraki Jamu implements innovation through product presentation, modern café concepts, and the use of coffee-style preparation methods. These strategies have successfully transformed the image of jamu from a traditional herbal drink to a contemporary lifestyle choice, especially among younger consumers. Acaraki also utilizes digital marketing and minimalist interior design to support consumer engagement. The study concludes that innovation plays a vital role in reviving traditional cultural products by making them more accessible and appealing to modern audiences. This research contributes to the understanding of how cultural heritage can adapt to current market demands through creative transformation, offering insights for businesses aiming to preserve tradition while attracting new market segments.</p> Margaret Levana Haninda Puspa, Feronika Berutu ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://www.ojs-journey.pib.ac.id/index.php/art/article/view/261 Mon, 30 Jun 2025 09:26:17 +0000 Analysis Of The Influence Of Motivation On Tourists’ Visiting Decisions To The Mangrove Ketapang Urban Aquaculture Mauk, Tangerang Regency https://www.ojs-journey.pib.ac.id/index.php/art/article/view/262 <p>This research was prompted by a decline in tourist visits to the Ketapang Mauk mangrove ecotourism area between May and September 2024, suggesting potential issues related to tourists’ motivation in making visitation decisions.

Lasem, known as "Little China" in Central Java, has rich historical and cultural values, where Lasem batik, with its distinctive motifs and colors, is the main tourist attraction. Although Karangturi Village has basic infrastructure such as hotels, hostels, and food stalls, the management of community-based tourism (CBT) is still not optimal. Limitations in local tourism management, promotion, and cultural preservation are challenges in developing this village as a culture-based tourism destination. This study aims to explore the potential of community-based cultural tourism in Karangturi Village and strategies that can increase active community participation in tourism management, with a focus on the integration of Lasem batik in the development of community-based tourism. This research will be conducted in Karangturi Village by involving various stakeholders, such as local communities, batik craftsmen, tourism business managers, and local government. Data were collected through Focus Group Discussions (FGD), semi-structured interviews, and field observations. The data obtained will be analyzed using thematic analysis, SWOT matrix. The results of the study show that Karangturi Lasem Tourism Village has a very strong cultural identity, especially in history, typical Chinese architecture, and unique Lasem batik. The existence of supporting facilities also provides added value for tourist comfort. However, challenges such as less than optimal transportation access and less than optimal promotion are obstacles that need to be overcome. Opportunities from the growing trend of cultural tourism and government support can be utilized with more aggressive and innovative marketing strategies. The contribution of this research is to make improvements in several sectors that are still less than optimal.</p> Sofiani Sofiani, Kevin Gustian Yulius, Gracia Eugene Hardjasa ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://www.ojs-journey.pib.ac.id/index.php/art/article/view/265 Mon, 30 Jun 2025 09:29:14 +0000 Analysis Of The Influence Of The Use Of Digital Tourism On The Interest In Visiting Generation Z At The Bank Indonesia Museum https://www.ojs-journey.pib.ac.id/index.php/art/article/view/270 <p>This study is to examine how the use of digital tourism affects generation Z tourists interest in visiting Museum Bank Indonesia.

It encompasses three key dimensions: physical environment, socio-cultural sustainability, and economic sustainability. Optimizing the sustainable management of tourism at tourist destinations is essential. One such destination in West Sumatra is the Saribu Gonjong Tourism Village (SARUGO), located in Sorong Sungai Dadok Village, Kanagarian Koto Tinggi, Gunung Omeh Subdistrict, Lima Puluh Kota Regency. This tourism village is known for its authentic Minangkabau way of life, situated amidst lush green nature and featuring traditional houses that reflect the grandeur of Minangkabau architecture. In addition, Saribu Gonjong offers cultural attractions such as traditional Minangkabau dance performances. The tourism potential of Saribu Gonjong Village needs to be optimized through sustainable management practices. However, current tourism management efforts are still suboptimal and require a stronger emphasis on sustainability principles. This study employs a descriptive method with a qualitative approach, utilizing both primary and secondary data. Data collection techniques include in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation. The collected data are analyzed through three stages: data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. To ensure data validity, data and source triangulation methods are applied. The research findings show that the increase in visits to Sarugo Tourism Village is achieved through collaborative promotion and annual cultural events. Challenges in accessibility and craft marketing are addressed through community self-initiatives, although government support remains necessary. From an environmental perspective, the village promotes awareness of cleanliness, cultural values, and mutual cooperation. Economically, positive contributions have begun to emerge, although they are limited by the fluctuating number of visitors. The potential of local businesses and agrotourism still requires strengthened promotion and service improvement. Socially, community training and cultural preservation efforts are in place, but remain limited and need to be expanded.</p> Feronika Berutu, Rifdatul Husna, Graciella Natasha ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://www.ojs-journey.pib.ac.id/index.php/art/article/view/269 Mon, 30 Jun 2025 09:31:27 +0000
