This research is designed in order to respond to the phenomenon of tourism shifting trends from sightseeing natural landscape to physical health and mental recovery. Guided by therapeutic landscape theory and Attention Restoration Theory (ART), this study is developed to examine the relationship among the therapeutic landscape (physical, symbolic and social landscape) to restorative experience and health perception. This research is planned to be carried out in three provinces in Indonesia (Jogjakarta, Central Java and East Java) with tourism destinations which represent the therapeutic landscape contexts. Quantitative approach is chosen as a research method, by distributing questionnaires online to tourist respondents. Four propositions were developed to explain the relationship between the therapeutic landscape, restorative experiences and the health perception. Restorative experience is proposed as mediating variable between the therapeutic landscape and health perception. The contribution of this research is so that tourism management has more innovative steps to meet the aspects of recovery and health that are increasingly becoming tourism demands today. Theoretically, is to enrich tourism literature which connect between tourism and health.
