About Dataset

Context

Bali is one of the world's most famous tourist destinations. This dataset provides a comprehensive mapping of various tourist attractions spread across all regencies and cities in Bali Province, Indonesia. It was meticulously collected to aid in the development of recommendation systems, spatial analysis, and tourism behavior research.

Content

The dataset contains detailed information extracted from Google Maps (as of early 2026). It includes the names of the locations, specific categorizations, user ratings, review counts, precise geographical coordinates (latitude and longitude), and image URLs for UI/UX integration purposes.

How to Use & Language Translation

The primary category column (kategori) is in Indonesian. To make it easier for international users, here is a quick Python snippet using Pandas to translate the categories into English for your analysis or recommendation engine:

import pandas as pd

# 1. Load the dataset
df = pd.read_csv("bali_tourist_destination.csv")

# 2. Dictionary to map Indonesian categories to English
category_mapping = {
    "Alam": "Nature & Landscape",
    "Rekreasi": "Recreation & Amusement",
    "Budaya": "Culture & Heritage",
    "Umum": "General & Others"
}

# 3. Create a new column with English categories
df['category_en'] = df['kategori'].map(category_mapping)

# View the result
print(df[['nama_tempat_wisata', 'kategori', 'category_en']].head())
