I'm new to IPv6 configuring in BIND. I need help. The forward zone is
simple enough with AAAA record, but the reversed zone is a bit confusing to
me.

For example, I want to add a hostname of www.example.com to
2001:1930:c00::2. This IPv6 address is /48.

How can I add this IPv6 address in a reversed format?

$ORIGIN 0.0.0.0.0.0.0.c.0.3.9.1.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa. IN SOA xxxx.xxxx.xxxx

@ NS dnstemp1.example.com

What should I put for the PTR???

Is the reversed for IPv6 in the ip6.arpa file or IP6.int file???

It's in ip6.arpa.  The whole name for 2001:1930:c00::2 should be:
   2.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.C.0.0.3.9.1.1.0.0.2.IP6.ARPA

In your origin above you lost a "0" right of the "c".  The ":c00:" chunk is
actually ":0c00:", so the correct origin is:
   0.0.0.0.0.0.c.0.0.3.9.1.1.0.0.2.ip6.arpa
in which the PTR RR would be:
   2.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.0      IN      PTR     www.example.com
