Abstract
Urban regeneration and urbanization are always concomitant topics and phenomena that appear in the history of China and other countries. Until the end of 2021, China's urbanization rate has reached 64.72%. Cities of different sizes and levels have been, are, or will soon be entering the era of inventory planning. Urban villages are the author's primary focus topic of urban regeneration under rapid urbanization. On the one hand, urban villages are the product of rapid urbanization.On the other hand, urban villages are also the key potential areas for urban regeneration. Urban villages have their inevitable "dynamic" and "transitional" nature in the process of urbanization. They are the link between urban and rural areas and the "first stage for living" for different groups.
