Abstract
Indonesia has a tourist attraction that is currently starting to develop rapidly, namely farm based tourism. One of the efforts needed to develop farm based tourism is by providing agro tourism. Utilizing agriculture in tourism activities is an alternative, especially in an agrarian country such as Indonesia which has the potential of agriculture with many species diversity. One of the largest agricultural producer areas in Indonesia is West Java, especially West Bandung Districts. West Bandung Districts is one of the regions that has the potential for agro tourism development because the location is relatively cool. Most of the area is in the form of mountains with high rainfall around 1500 - 3500 mm / year so that it has fertile land, therefore the community mostly works in agriculture. The high number of farmers and agricultural production in West Bandung Districts has not been used optimally to be said as an agro tourism location. A study of aspects that affect the success and sustainability of tourist destinations is needed so that the potential in a tourist destination is known and becomes the basis for the development that will be carried out. This study uses a spatial analysis method that describes spatial patterns based on the potential of agro tourism land, and Community Based Tourism with the help of maps that will be seen in its distribution. Also using simple statistical analysis is the chi-square test to find out the correlation and then draw conclusions and describe briefly based on the research objectives.
