However, rapid urbanization and the development of modern markets have placed traditional markets under significant pressure. This research aims to explore how the concept of urban acupuncture can be applied as a revitalization step to strengthen the role of traditional markets in the balance of urban ecosystems. Padang Bulan Market, a traditional market in Padang Bulan Village, Medan, faces challenges in maintaining its relevance amidst the city's rapid development.

These plans include infrastructure updates, facility improvements, and more functional space arrangements. In addition, the plan also proposes the integration of cultural and community elements that enrich the visitor experience. In facing the challenges of urbanization, this approach emphasizes the important role of traditional markets in promoting economic and social sustainability in a growing urban context.]]>
