Then rather than that, this research focuses on the history of religious tourism and then things that affect the economy of the surrounding community with the existence of religious tourism.

This study resulted in several discussions such as the existence of religious tourism to the tomb of Sheikh Maulana Maghribi including a form of respect for the residents around the tomb for him who gave a good, holy and sacred influence like auliya and scholars but no one knows the exact history clearly. Then the presence of the tomb in the midst of the Wonobodro residents also raised the economic level of the residents. The produce they use as the material they sell and buy is able to provide a hefty profit.

This research also raises suggestions to the citizens and the government of Batang Regency to preserve and improve the optimization of religious tourism that was abandoned from ancient times as local culture and to explore more deeply how the exact history of religious tourism or the relics that are increasingly being abandoned here are increasingly being abandoned.
