At present, China is carrying out “from the top to the bottom” government-authorized “Multi-planning United” reform pilot, exploring to establish “one city or county, one planning and one blue-print”, improving the spatial planning system in the city and the county. The paper compares the spatial planning system between China and Japan in the planning compilation system, the management system and the legal system, and finds out that there are many types of plannings in China, each with different characteristics; the rights of the sector are separated and each planning system has their own rules; it’s lacking in strategy and hard to implement; unified authority laws and regulations haven’t been issued to secure the planning system. In terms of the results from “Multi-planning United” and the experience from Japan, the paper puts forward reconstructing spatial planning system, giving concrete suggestions on how to promote the planning system, the legal system, the coordinating management division and the unified information platform.
