In the context of rural revitalization strategy and a new round of national land space and rural planning, the protection and development of traditional villages are gradually transitioning from the original “protection-centered”principle to a new idea of revitalization and connotation development and protection. In this study, the development potential of traditional villages in Foshan, Guangdong Province, was assessed, based on which six development types and relevant development strategies were proposed systematically to solve the current contradiction between development and protection of traditional villages. Moreover, a case study based on Hewu Village was conducted, aiming to provide references for the operability and characteristic revitalization and utilization of traditional village planning.
