Abstract

The study explores the intersection of cultural landscape Architecture preservation and urban sustainability, highlighting the significance of integrating cultural and natural dimensions within urban development frameworks. By surveying 200 members of the cultural landscape preservation associations, the research captures diverse perspectives on the importance, challenges, and alignment of preservation efforts with urban sustainability goals. Findings recognise the critical role of cultural landscapes in shaping urban identity and fostering community cohesion, yet also reveal challenges such as limited public awareness and conflicting development needs. The study emphasizes the need for cohesive frameworks, enhanced policy support, and strong stakeholder partnerships to advance preservation efforts. Future strategies should focus on public engagement through educational initiatives and collaborative projects, underscoring the importance of interdisciplinary collaboration. Ultimately, the research advocates for adaptable frameworks and empirical evaluations to effectively integrate cultural landscape Architecture preservation within urban sustainability, thereby enriching urban environments for future generations.
