^{Tourism development strategies outline there are three Growth Options that offer different approaches to tourism development in BYP and Joglosemar. The three scenarios are: first the "Concentrated" scenario offers a strategy to continue the majority of existing tourism products. Improvements in the field of transportation will be made, and there will be several investment interventions related to tourism specifically located at or near core attractions. In this option Yogyakarta will remain the dominant tourism destination in the BYP region with a limited number of sub-centers, especially YIA, Borobudur KTA, Prambanan KTA and DIY South Coast. Both scenarios are "Dispersed" to form a more balanced tourism engine for the wider region, focusing mainly on DI Yogyakarta and the central to southern parts of Central Java. Infrastructure improvements will be made, and limited product diversification will foster additional groups of visitor attractions around the main tourist attractions, playing with the strength of existing cultural resources. The three "Deconcentrated" scenarios that propose that BYP should form a core for a far wider range of 'Java Tourism' products. this scenario will focus more on a wider area of ??Joglosemar, including Solo / Sangiran, Merapi / Merbabu, Wonosari / Gunung Sewu, Ambarawa / Salatiga, Dieng Plateau, Semarang, Karimunjawa as a companion for Borobudur, Prambanan, beaches in DIY, and YIA Aeropolis.}
