With the acceleration of urbanization,how to effectively protect and transform historical districts in ur-ban planning,as well as balance the inheritance of historical heritage and meet the needs of modern urban devel-opment,has become a research topic.This paper takes the Guandi Temple Historical and Cultural District in Xinx-iang City,Henan Province as an example,and conducts research through literature review,field research,and questionnaire surveys.A combination of qualitative and quantitative methods is used to evaluate the current situa-tion,problems,and development of the neighborhood after renovation.Research has found that although historical districts have undergone planning and renovation,there are still problems such as excessive commercial develop-ment,insufficient infrastructure,and obstacles to the inheritance of historical and cultural heritage.Therefore,his-toric districts should be transformed and planned according to their unique regional cultural characteristics,sus-tainable development ideas and directions,and tailored to local conditions.The renovation planning of historical districts under urbanization should follow the principle of heritage protection and moderate development.Atten-tion should be paid to the inheritance of history and culture.With the goal of scientific and sustainable develop-ment,corresponding regulatory mechanisms and evaluation systems should be established to achieve the coordina-ted development of culture,economy,and society in historic districts.
