مستخلص: Industrial city is an important concept in urban planning. This paper discusses the connotation, origination, quantity, scale, type, distribution, achievements, and planning characteristics of industrial cities in the Middle East Arab countries through literature, statistical, and comparative analyses. It identifies the problems and challenges industrial cities in the Middle East Arab countries are facing and proposes relevant countermeasures for their transformation under the new situation of the Belt and Road Initiative. At present, the research shows that there are about 100 industrial cities planned and constructed in Saudi Arabia, Syria, Qatar, and other Middle East Arab countries. Composed of free trade zones, industrial parks, and handicraft zones, a multi-levelled carrier system is formed for regional industrialization, helping to optimize the urban and economic geography pattern and to promote the integration of industrialization and urbanization of the region. They become a systematic upgrade and comprehensive transcendence of free trade zones and industrial zones, forming a comprehensive platform for the Middle East Arab countries to promote resource development and integration, industry upgrading and transformation, and industry-city integration and symbiosis. The paper proposes that China and the Middle East Arab countries should learn from each other regarding the planning and development of industrial cities and manage to achieve the coordinated development between China's Overseas International Cooperation Parks and the Middle East Arab countries' industrial cities.
