Abstract: Abstract Tana Toraja Regency, a prominent Indonesian tourist destination, witnesses a notably low tourism sector contribution to the local regional revenue (PAD). The decline in annual tourist visits, including the iconic Jesus Statue attraction in Buntu Burake, exacerbates the situation. This research aims to address three key objectives: 1) scrutinizing the management of the Buntu Burake tourist attraction, 2) evaluating its socio-economic influence on the adjacent community’s welfare, and 3) analyzing its contribution to regional revenue (PAD). Efficient management of tourist attractions, particularly the Jesus Statue in Buntu Burake, is essential to enhance the ‘community’s well-being and elevate PAD. The research employs a descriptive qualitative approach, analyzed using Miles and Huberman’s method, encompassing data collection, reduction, presentation, and conclusion. In-depth interviews will involve stakeholders, including officials from the Tourism, Youth, and Sports Department, attraction staff, traders, and tourists. Findings indicate that the Tourism, Youth, and Sports Department is responsible for Buntu Burake’s management, with daily income deposits. The attraction positively impacts the community’s income and well-being, contributing to increased local revenue in Tana Toraja Regency.
