Abstract:
Tourism development is primarily concerned with the welfare of the community because tourism development in one area can increase employment and income for the surrounding local community as well as state income. However, when it comes to tourism development, we must consider several factors that will be influenced by both the economic and socio-cultural aspects of the surrounding local community. Kampung Naga is one of the attractions that uses the concept of cultural tourism. This study is qualitative and descriptive in nature. According to the study's findings, the development of cultural tourism in Kampung Naga has had a significant impact on the local community, particularly on its economic aspects. In terms of community economy, the level of the local community economy is higher than before. The creation of new jobs and the opportunity to expand businesses have a positive impact on the local economy. It does, however, result in income inequality for the people living around the dragon village. The development of tourism in Kampung Naga has an impact not only on the economic but also on the socio-cultural aspects of the local community. A variety of indicators influence the socio-cultural aspects of the local community.
