Abstract

Tenganan Pegringsingan Village, located in Manggis District, Karangasem Regency, on the eastern side of Bali, is renowned for its status as a Bali Aga village—a traditional mountainous settlement. Rich in cultural and natural tourism potential, the village has undergone significant transformation since being designated as a cultural tourism destination by the government. These changes are evident in the spatial arrangements and traditional architecture at various levels, including the macro village, banjar (community groups), and individual residential buildings. This research employs qualitative methods with a phenomenological approach, utilizing direct observation, in-depth interviews, and spatial and architectural mapping to gather data. The study aims to provide valuable insights into the management of tourism-oriented villages in Bali, particularly those rooted in traditional village structures. The findings are intended to support the preservation of cultural values while accommodating the evolving demands of the tourism sector.
