These myths often revolve around a palace-centric narrative,featuring princes, princesses, and even celestial beings.From a geographical perspective, Telaga Warna's unique hues are attributed to the presence of sulfur and sulfur within the lake, reflecting a spectrum of colors. Additionally, the lake's formation is believed to be the result of a former crater filled with water.This research aims to delve into the legend of Telaga Warna, exploring its myths and potential as a literary tourism destination. Telaga Warna's natural beauty, encompassing a serene lake, a small forest, and the backdrop of Mount Perahu,makes it a popular attraction for selfies and nature enthusiasts.The lake's literary significance lies in the potential for its legend and myths to be transformed into various art forms, such as traditional or modern drama, sinetron (Indonesian soap operas), films, and documentaries.
