Development is basically from and for all people, it must involve and be recognized at all levels of society in order to achieve the intended development goals. The usage of the Rupat Island center as a historical tour in Bengkalis regency is an example of eco-education, in which cultural heritage item preservation is linked to educational renewal. This is a qualitative research project that uses participant observation and in-depth interviews. The findings suggest that regional growth on Rupat Island can be accomplished by leveraging a variety of factors, including districts, suburbs, landmarks, nodes, and paths that require government authorization in the Malacca area. If access to tourist locations is made easier, the development of Rupat Island as a cultural tourism destination has a lot of potential and appeal for regional cultural tourism destinations.
