Abstract

Urban design strategies and theories represent the first starting point for the processes of developing and improving the urban, social, cultural and political environment, as it is an important factor to solve the problems of urban context and environments, but these strategies take many years and high economic costs, so the theory of urban acupuncture appeared, which works on introducing small interventions with less time and budget, and all this is done by analysing the city and identifying the points and places that need treatment (such as treating the patient’s body by analysing the location of the defect and the disease). Therefore, the research problem lies in the lack of knowledge about linking urban acupuncture with the revival of the area. The aim of the research is to improve and revive these important points in the city (acupuncture points) that cause this improvement to spread. In this research, acupuncture will be presented and how this medical technology is inspired and used in the field of urban architecture, where the research consists of three main important topics: The first topic includes the history and types of acupuncture. The second topic includes the historical origin of the urban acupuncture as well as its definition, and the most important theorists of this concept, its foundations and levels. The third topic includes the revival of the city in terms of definition and levels.
