Abstract

This study investigates the complex interplay between sustainable spatial design, eco-friendly architecture, accessibility, and their collective impact on religious tourist satisfaction, revealing that while eco-friendly architecture exerts the most significant positive influence, indicating a clear preference for environmentally conscious infrastructure among tourists, sustainable spatial design elements contribute moderately, contingent upon their contextual integration with cultural and environmental factors, and accessibility exhibits a weaker correlation, suggesting its implicit functional role rather than a primary satisfaction driver, with the findings emphasizing the necessity for tourism destinations to holistically integrate sustainable design, ecological practices, and inclusive accessibility to not only enhance tourist experiences but also ensure the long-term preservation of cultural and natural resources, positioning sustainability at the core of competitive differentiation in the evolving global tourism landscape.
