INTRODUCTION 
Indonesia is one of the countries that having highest biodiversity in the world. About 30,000 plant species are mostly live in the forest. There are only 4,000 sites have been identified. One of the existing biodiversity is the fruit crop. Fruit crops in Indonesia, especially in the area of forests and forest communities, are still not widely used optimally in the tourist industry which are currently being developed rapidly [1].
Agrotourism is an alternative of sustainable tourism which is part of the attraction in the form of agricultural businesses. Agrotourism activities were aimed to broaden the knowledge, experience, leisure and knowledge of the agricultural world [2]. The number of fruit trees in the area around the forest or settlements is like the implementation of agrotourism potential.
This study aimed to describe the diversity of fruit species and their spatial distribution around the attraction of Bayu Romo and the corridor along the Village of Rawa Bayu. The study also aimed to map fruit crops periodivity in one year and determine the public perception related to  Correspondence address: Azzah Fauziyah Cholis Email : azzahbio@gmail.com Address : Jl.

It used to input data vector for samples coordinates location in the form of text. Distribution map of fruit plants was made with software Quantum GIS (Geographic Information System). Data of distribution derived from the data that has been input based on the text. Distribution of fruit plants is featured in Quantum GIS in the form of vector, thus when processed it will appear as points of distribution.
