Tourism plays an important role in global economic growth, it has a direct impact on GDP, employment and regional development. Along with the rapid development of tourism, it has its effects on the environment, such as increased pollution and carbon emissions. Sustainable tourism architecture as a form of mitigation of the effects of tourism on the environment is the focus of this study. The main issue of the study centers on the contribution of tourism to climate change and its impact on the environment. The research method uses a qualitative approach with a literature review and review of case studies from regions such as the Douro Valley, Portugal, and urban areas in China. Sustainable tourism architecture uses local materials, energy-efficient design, and resource management discussed in the case study. The study results show that sustainable design is able to reduce carbon emissions, save energy, and participate in resource conservation. In this study, the benefits of environmentally friendly buildings increase environmental resilience to climate change. This can be achieved by maximizing environmentally friendly design by considering the costs incurred, it is necessary to understand how to choose environmentally friendly technology with minimal costs. Future research should look at the long-term benefits of sustainable tourism as well as how technology can make travel more desirable while still adhering to net zero carbon emissions.
