Therefore he refers to Abstract: One of several forms of implementation of three broad groups: (1) i.e. motivated tourists (who choose engineering knowledge is the matrix method, one of them Market their destination according to cultural opportunities); (2) Appeal-Robusticity Matrix method. With this matrix the research groups of tourists who are inspired (who choose destinations conducted is (1) evaluating Minangkabau cultural heritage assets in Tanah Datar District in terms of their uniqueness and based on international recognition) and (3) groups of tourists importance as tourist attraction assets, and (2) Evaluating who are interested (those who at some time feel attracted by Minangkabau cultural heritage assets in terms of the quality and culture, even though that is not their main motivation). The current state of Cultural Heritage Tourism in Tanah Datar classification according to interest, according to [4] based on District. Furthermore, the Market Appeal-Robusticity Matrix research conducted in Hong Kong, which distinguishes method has been used to assess cultural heritage assets in Tanah between five types: (1) highly motivated cultural assets; (2) Datar. Then for further information, in addition to direct observation, obtained from the tourism sector, travel agents, sightseeing (whose interests are visiting the main famous government, asset owners, and conservation specialists for tourist attractions: the most iconic of the destinations on questionnaires and interviews. The results of this research offer); (3) ordinary cultural assets (culture is a less important indicate Batu Angkek-Angkek and Istano Basa Pagaruyung, Sari element); (4) incidental cultural assets (culture is not an Tabek Hall, Rao-Rao Mosque, Tuo Kampai Nan Panjang House, interesting element and cursory contact) and (5) accidental and Batu Basurek achieved the highest scores. Therefore, one of the implications of this research is the proposition of specific steps inventor (culture is not an interest but, conversely, when there to improve the image of tourism products including the is contact he becomes very involved and has great formulation of policies and management for the government, experience). asset owners, and the community of Tanah Datar District with the Efforts to find a model for assessing assets potential and aim of preserving these cultural heritage assets, so that this asset management in destinations have generally been done potential remains and able to become an economic resource, and also to position assets as a unique tourist product location for both by many people.

Data analysis is performed to process the data Batu Angkek-Angkek; (10) Rao-Rao Mosque. These ten obtained through the process of data collection, and the data assets have been developed more than 50 years ago and are collected is analyzed until the research objectives are well-known by the local and widespread community in answered. The analytical procedures discussed are focused on Indonesia. Then, all of these assets will be analyzed based on the relationship of each element or indicator that needs to be aspects of inheritance value. evaluated. There are four indicators, namely market First, document research aims to gather background attractiveness, product design needs, cultural significance and information to assess the cultural significance of the assets resilience. and investigate the factors that hinder the development of Each asset is assigned or chosen by its variables, with heritage assets.
