Abstract
The rise of social media has had a wide impact on urban and rural planning, and this paper aims to explore its role in urban and rural planning. Through the analysis and interpretation of a large amount of data on social media platforms, this study reveals the positive role of social media in information dissemination, increased participation, and problem feedback in urban and rural planning. By providing convenient channels for information exchange and public participation, social media has effectively improved the decision-making process and effect of urban and rural planning. The article also deeply studies the interaction mechanism between urban and rural planning and social media, discusses the urban and rural planning strategies based on social media, and puts forward relevant suggestions. In urban and rural planning, social media plays a key role in promoting public participation and improving the effect of planning, and plays an important leading role in the future development of urban and rural planning.
