Sustainable Design of Muhammadiyah Edutourism Site Plan

Istana Qur’an is the only contemporary Islamic boarding school in Sarwodadi Village, Pejawaran District, Banjarnegara, Central Java Province. This Islamic boarding school is one of Muhammadiyah’s charities in the Pejawaran Muhammadiyah Branch (PCM) and partners in research project activity. Sarwodadi Village has initiated a Muhammadiyah-based educational-tourism complex since 2021 due to its relatively close location to the Dieng tourist destination in Central Java. This research paper aims to rearrange the Muhammadiyah edu-tourism site plan to be following the appropriate technical requirements while also considering land usage and the environment for edu-tourism. The research methods included aerial photography, land mapping by using drone and Google earth map, actual field measurements, and technical descriptions utilizing CAD and Sketch-up-based programs. The redesign for the preparation of a site plan in a specific interest tourism complex area must pay attention to the conditions of existing space utilization and its environment, consider user behavior, and consider long-term benefits and investment factors in order to generate an adequate redesign concept for user needs at a given time. The renovated edu-tourism complex is intended to provide more value, particularly in terms of local revenue. © The Authors, published by EDP Sciences.
