Urban Planning is the process of designing and organizing urban spaces and land use in cities and towns to ensure sustainable development, efficient infrastructure, and harmonious community living. It involves the assessment and arrangement of physical, social, economic, and environmental factors to create functional and vibrant urban areas.
