The policy of regional autonomy in Bali has implications for the autonomy authority granted at the regency/city level regarding the establishment of tourism villages in each regency/city in Bali. The number of tourism villages in Bali has increased significantly over the past decade years totaling 154 tourism villages. Tourism villages have high opportunities in equitable development between urban and rural areas, hampering the flow of urbanization, creating new employment opportunities, and creating a appreciation for traditional professions cultivated by rural communities which are the main attraction (such as farmers, weavers, fishermen). This study aims to analyze the typology of tourism villages and the potential for developing tourism village in Bali.

This article is aimed to reinterpret the ritual of Ketupat War based on practical consciousness into reflexive consciousness to preserve agricultural tradition in Kapal Village, Badung Regency. This consciousness could be created by deconstructing the pragmatic materialistic perspective by promoting local knowledge Tri Hita Karana, philosophy on the harmonious relationship among human being, human and nature, and God. This research applied a descriptive qualitative method and structuration approach from Giddens to explain the ritual Perang Ketupat as reflexive consciousness. The research shows that the local people at Kapal Village interpret this ritual as practical consciousness without knowing the function and the meaning of the ritual. It means that ritual is only performed annually as a routine tradition. Therefore, reflexive consciousness needs to be nurtured through constructing the community`s awareness of this ritual as a tourist attraction, so that they can get the economic benefit (touristic meanings). In other words, tourism becomes a melting-pot producing space of the triple sections among nature, culture and tourism which is called Eco-Cultural Tourism Landscape (ECTL).
