Abstract

Bukit Sinunggal Temple is very well known as a spiritual tourism destination in North Bali. This phenomenon is interesting to study using a social theory framework of thinking and a qualitative research approach. The results of the research show the development of this temple as a spiritual tourism destination because of its historical values and gods of Bukit Sinunggal Temple fulfill various goals of Hindus. This temple is multipurpose for tourists. For example, visitors to this temple aim to carry out ngajar-ajar (a series of Ngaben rituals), pray for the blessing of position, prosperity, success in handling job, and health. All of these activities are related to each other in a holistic manner so the visitors get an optimal satisfaction. This condition is also supported by natural capital of Desa Tajun that can be developed as agro-tourism. This development is also strengthened by an adequate infrastructure, transportation, and hospitality of the people.
