The interest of urban planning is at the city level and focuses on functional relations, While urban design deals with part of the city (specific location), it cares about aesthetic and functional aspects
Urban design is broader than urban planning, also incorporates architecture, landscape architecture, even civil and traffic engineering. It uses an interdisciplinary approach to make urban areas functional and livable.
Dear Ted,
Many thanks for your scientific reply.
I agree with your idea about the Urban design incorporates architecture, landscape architecture, even civil and traffic engineering. but on the other hand, I think like many other Architects and urban planners that Urban planning is broader than Urban design, not the opposite as you confirmed.

Dear Dr Ihsan,
Thanks for your answer, Actually I agree with you that the main difference between the urban planning and urban design is the level and function.

The scale of impact, process, and decision.
Urban planning often addresses big issues that related to policy, regulations, standards, and codes. It is more about long term-value. Urban design deals with features and details put in limited scales. It is more about place-making and forming spatial and physical features.

Dear Dr Dhirgham,
Actually, the scale is the difference between urban planning and the urban design so the question is what that will be because of this situation??

Urban planning is the act of planning a construction, while, urban design is building based on these plans.
Urban Planning focuses on City planning, regional planning; actually it is kind of broader topic than Urban design. Because Urban design is taking about small scale dedesigning in urban areas. But urban planning means larger scale topic.
I am agree with @ Thakshala kumari. According to my point of view, Designing is the part of the planning. It is not vast concept. Otherwise, planning can be considered as science. Designing may be supported to art.
Urban planning is the process of planning urban area. Urban design is point of including within that urban planning process.
