Abstract

The city of Singaraja in North Bali as one of the old cities in Bali has many cultural heritages including the Dutch route. The Dutch colonial government built this route after controlling Bali in 1846 and making Singaraja City the center of its government. Along this route, city facilities such as offices, trade, public service facilities and official residences will be built. Law Number 26 of 2007 concerning Spatial Planning even implies the importance of preserving cultural values that develop in the community in the implementation of spatial planning, meaning that the implementation of spatial planning must pay attention to various aspects, including the cultural values contained in historical areas. Meanwhile, Law Number 11 of 2010 concerning Cultural Conservation states that cultural heritage is the nation's cultural wealth as a form of thought and behavior of human life which is important for understanding and developing history, science, and culture in the life of society, nation and state so that need to be preserved. Conservation itself is a controlled change, a part of change in response to the challenges of the times, without losing valuable assets and values that must be preserved. This sustainability is what makes a city stand out in the midst of an epidemic of uniformity.
