Abstract
This paper brings forward the case of the transformation of an archaeological heritage, Sangliat Dol Village, to become one of the tourist attractions in Tanimbar Island, Maluku, Indonesia. The placemaking concept is applied for planning the zoning for the village and the preservation as the main attraction. The internal and external stakeholders’ agreements to designate Tanimbar as a national tourist destination will support economic and cultural proliferation, with education as the empowering tool for local people. The master plan utilizes the zoning concept as guidelines for spatial design, such as visitor center, and the preserved cultural heritage attractions.
