Abstract
Cirebon city has experienced a long period of historical development. In that period a lot of values and historical events that took place to form the characteristics of the city that exists today. Even so the remnants of the past in the form of architectural works, the wealth of art, tradition and culture still survive along with the development of the era as the Living Monument. This makes the city of Cirebon very worthy to be called the City of Cultural Tourism or the City of National Heritage, maybe even as a World Heritage City. To be able to further enhance tourism in the city of Cirebon, contemporary tourism destinations need to be developed to serve the desires and tastes of tourists. Learn from other cities such as Yogyakarta which has Jl. Malioboro or Bandung which has Jl. Asia-Afrika, it seems that the city of Cirebon has the potential to be developed as well as the city of Yogyakarta and the city of Bandung. For this reason, there must be a policy from the city government to make the 'Karangwangi' corridor as the orientation of the morphological development of the city and the Landmark of the City of Cirebon.
