Abstract
The Mataram Canal is a historical inscription of the policy of Mataram's King which had saved thousands of Yogyakarta residents from the obligation to become Romusha during the Japanese colonialism. The inscription still stands today and has widely used for agricultural irrigation. Although it has a long interesting history and supported by beautiful natural scenery, this place has not been managed for tourism purposes. For this reason, this research is an initial study that will review the physical condition ofMataram Canal and the quality of the water. The Mataram Canal landscape is quite beautiful but requires a lot of repairs in several parts. Water quality also showed that the water does not meet favorable standards caused by sampling carried out in the rainy season. Thus the need for research in the dry season which could be used as a reference in determining the feasibility of Mataram Canal as a water tourism attraction.
