| Abstract | This research aimed to evaluate the conservation needs and analyze the conservation process of the Puen ancestor's worship festival for tourism promotion in the Sai Moon subdistrict, Ongkharak district, Nakhon Nayok province. Utilizing a quantitative approach, the study involved questionnaires completed by 303 residents, and the data was analyzed through standard deviation, correlation, and ordinary multiple regression analysis. The findings revealed high conservation needs in organizing activities, public relations, and participation, while wisdom transfer and cultural preservation were moderate. The study also identified a significant demand for facilities and tourist-participatory activities, with public relations showing a lower impact on tourism promotion than wisdom transfer. However, the research could have been more extensive by its geographical and methodological scope, indicating that the findings should be applied cautiously beyond the studied area. It recommended enhancing local conservation efforts, particularly in public relations and cultural education, and developing sustainable, participatory tourism experiences. The research suggested that future studies should expand to other regions, employ qualitative methods for deeper cultural insights, and assess the long-term impact of tourism on cultural sustainability. |
