Abstract

This paper aims to provide a different view of public space and its potential as creative tourism resources. Public spaces here are seen as ‘ephemeral event space’ which is creatively created by the public in a physical place at a certain time. Pasar kaget at Sunda Kelapa mosque was used as a primary case in this paper. I identified how the authority in Sunda Kelapa mosque gives access to a particular member of local communities, so they can insert additional value to the place by transforming the mosque’s sterile courtyard into goods and food markets that are always crowded with visitors. I argue that what was done by the authority and community in Sunda Kelapa mosque could be explored further to develop the idea of using public space as a resource for establishing a creative strategy for creative tourism.
