China and Italy, both ancient civilizations, have numerous traditional villages that bear historical witness and facilitate cultural inheritance. However, these villages face challenges like homogenized development, population outflow, and interrupted cultural inheritance. While China emphasizes government-led overall protection and sustainable development through planning and resource integration, Italy focuses on protecting history and culture with community participation and private investment, turning villages into cultural tourist destinations. This study aims to compare the protection and utilization modes and planning methodologies of traditional villages in China and Italy, providing insights for mutual learning and reference.
