On account of vast developments in urban areas, the so-called cultural heritage of cities, may tolerate irreversible damages, thus striking a balance is essential. The opinions of stakeholders could be a reliable reference in maintaining this balance. Therefore, the perception of the public should complement the expertise required in the conservation of historic urban areas and the development of adjacency. This paper outlines the findings of a study conducted to in address the most important challenges that Constantine faces between urban development programs and the preservation of historic urban areas. And What are the current and future obstacles to urban and regional development and ways to overcome them and restore them to the ranks of global cities as one of the world's most beautiful cities with their suspended bridges and ancient architectural heritage?
