Local cultural preservation is a crucial aspect of maintaining the identity and wisdom of a region amid the forces of globalization. This article examines the role of integrating local cultural preservation into sustainable urban planning as a strategic foundation for enhancing global competitiveness. The study employs a qualitative approach through literature review and case analysis of several cities that have successfully incorporated cultural preservation into regional and urban planning policies. The findings reveal that local cultural preservation not only strengthens community identity and social cohesion but also serves as a vital asset in developing cultural tourism, creative economies, and culture-based innovation that support global competitiveness. The novelty of this research lies in emphasizing the integration of local culture as a strategic element within sustainable urban planning, an area that has been underexplored in urban and regional planning literature. The implications of this study recommend planners and policymakers adopt a holistic approach that combines cultural preservation with social, economic, and environmental aspects in urban development, thereby creating cities that are both highly competitive and culturally and ecologically sustainable. This research contributes to the advancement of urban and regional planning knowledge by highlighting the importance of local culture as a strategic foundation in addressing globalization challenges.
