Abstract
Architecture "is an expression of the way of life and the spirit of the ages and cultures in which I grew up" as the buildings speak for themselves. While tourism is a scenario "to define a city to an unfamiliar audience and acquire an identity for a citizen". Both architecture and tourism have been linked together since time immemorial. Architecture was the main aspect of attracting crowds, while tourism helped architecture survive the test of time as well as money. Both tourism and architecture operate in a symbiotic manner to break the lack of familiarity with any culture and to provide the original essence of the place, its culture and development. Accordingly, the research aimed to delve into the role of iconic architecture in sustainable tourism development, by identifying the concept of sustainable tourism development and the concept of iconic architecture and addressing the relationship between them to solve the research problem that was defined by ((ambiguity of knowledge about the role that iconic architecture plays as an effective tool in sustainable tourism development)), And with this the research objective was indicated ((finding a perception about the role that iconic architecture plays in sustainable tourism development)], and defining the research hypothesis (the impact of sustainable tourism development by iconic architecture as a tourist destination).
