This research aims to assess the Borobudur temple tourist destination’s sustainability status and identify indicators that need improvement to increase its sustainability index. The data processing used the Rap-tourism with a Multidimensional Scaling (MDS) approach. The results show the sustainability index value is 69,84, categorize as moderate. The sustainability index was formed from four dimensions, the environmental dimension index 66,94; economic dimension index 72,62; sociocultural dimensions index 72,76; and institutional dimensions index 69,27. A recommendation was generated by an interview with tourism object management and then selected based on sensitive indicators of each dimension (highest RMS value).
