Potential of tourism in the district of Asmat scattered in several districts where there is a traditional art form of carving, traditional dances and celebrations, national parks and areas with flora and fauna life that is still natural. Development of tourist areas in the district of Asmat can be improved through the development of traditional culture and the preservation of the existing environment. Another thing that needs to be done is to conserve the environment, national parks and protected forests there. Other tourism potentials that can be developed is various species of orchid that is very much in the Asmat jungle. Orchid species, with its thousands numbers could be developed into an attraction for tourists. This is supported by the findings of rare species in the forest in Papua which include Asmat jungle.

 

It is necessary to formulate a plan or a program to develop the tourism sector of Asmat district considering the existing tourism potentials such as wild nature tourism in National Garden or in protected forests that are rich of specific orchids of thousands species. The tourism potentials have not been well-managed. A good management of the tourism potentials will result in local tourist attractions for both domestic and international tourists. The only obstacle to develop the tourism sector of the district is geographic one. Geographically, the district is not easy to access, especially using ground transportation routes, while the air transportation is limited. Therefore, the development of tourism sector is capital intensive though it has promising outcome in the future.
