“…These places barely survived the 19th and 20th centuries because inhabitants left and moved to larger settlements, mostly because of employment opportunities [107][108][109]. Abandoned construction collapses often because the maintenance of protected heritage is far more expensive [110].…”

In the era of urbanization, small towns confront challenges in sustaining and preserving their essence and population. Historical towns have discovered their potential in tourism development, yet this opportunity often escalates into overtourism, particularly in renowned cruising destinations. This paper focuses on examples of coastal historical towns dependent on tourism revenue and faced with an excessive influx of tourists in the Mediterranean Region. The objective is to examine various cases across diverse geographical, cultural, and policy contexts to evaluate their success in achieving a balance between economic development and genius loci. This analysis seeks to identify the factors that contributed to the attainment of this equilibrium. Therefore, we selected case studies throughout the Mediterranean coast—from Saint Paul de Vence and Èze at the Azure Coast, Dubrovnik and Kotor in the Adriatic Sea, to Nafplio and Monemvasia in the Aegean Sea. The selected examples range from towns that are almost entirely depopulated to those that are suffocating from the influx of tourists. Observations on the spot and review of policies led us to the conclusion that the geography of the area and cultural values represent comparative (dis)advantages that can be influenced and shaped by policies from the time of the pre-tourist phase to the phase of overtourism. Even though the success of an early policy and the effects of investments aligned with it might be uncertain, pre-tourist policies turn out to be the most successful when it comes to balanced tourist-resident development. Determination of authorities to not only see economic benefit but also genius loci and quality of life of residents is crucial, too.

“…Currently, developments and pressures of political ideology, economics, and globalization are greatly influencing the transformation of the built environment and culture of cities in Asia (Logan 2002). When infrastructure, architecture, functions, and activities are transformed in buildings and cultural heritage areas, it causes problems (Hmood 2019;Boudiaf 2019;. This problem causes the character of cultural heritage areas to change so that the public cannot appreciate and evaluate them from the physical and visual aspects alone (Boudiaf 2016;Taylor and Lennon 2012).…”

Multi-sensori berpengaruh dalam mengenali sebuah tempat lebih baik. Proses mengenali tersebut perlu didukung oleh konsepsi tempat yang tidak dibatasi oleh aspek fisik saja. Pemahaman ini berlawanan dengan paradigma yang umum terjadi dalam pemahaman dan model pelestarian kawasan cagar budaya yang masih terbatas pada peningkatan kualitas fisik berdasarkan indra visual. Artikel ini mendiskusikan peran dan potensi multi-sensori dalam memahami konsepsi tempat yang bermanfaat pada pelestarian kawasan cagar budaya perkotaan. Penelitian ini menggunakan pengumpulan data dari studi kepustakaan dan pengamatan lapangan kawasan cagar budaya sekitar Gedung Sate kota Bandung. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa persepsi multi-sensori berperan serta berpotensi untuk mempermudah proses pembacaan dan merasakan tempat oleh individu. Diskusi ini membuka wacana baru untuk mengintegrasikan aspek non fisik berbasis persepsi subjek dalam diskusi kawasan cagar budaya perkotaan.

“…Various policies on a regional scale were created as an effective control mechanism for globalization, but the lack of adaptability to the unique qualities of heritage sites makes any action taken inadequate for heritage preservation (Hmood, 2019). Urban conservation has a very broad scope, not limited to individual structures, but includes the city and the region as a whole so that the goals of sustainability and conservation often lead to conflicts (Bandarin & van Oers, 2012).…”

This study explores the role of cultural traditions in maintaining identity for the city’s sustainability by looking at the relationship between cultural traditions, conservation, and urban design. Local culture, customs, and traditions are recognized as forming the character of space that gives identity. So cultural sustainability becomes a higher emphasis in sustainable development activities. Tradition can be understood and even creates a sense of place for local communities towards their environment in globalization if the principle of cultural essence is not threatened. Gianyar City, Bali, was chosen as a case study representing other cities with possibly similar characteristics. This area has the potential to fulfill a sustainable urban revitalization initiative. The study shows three urban form determinants, the dominant characteristics that project the attributes of fixedness and permanence: (1) Desa Adat, (2) pempatan agung (catuspatha), and (3) spatial division based on direction orientation (mandala and luan teben). It proves that tradition can bridge the change and development of community culture by ensuring that the basic beliefs of a group can be expressed and maintained in a residential environment.
