description Urban marketplace is a community place where trading activities take place. Over the course of urban development, the marketplace gradually changes and become a place where the communities grow socially, culturally and economically. Consequently, a number of urban marketplaces become iconic because of their unique products and setting, making them a tourist attraction. However, redevelopment projects at times transform the characteristics of the marketplace that eventually affect people’s experience. There is a significant need to closely examine the characteristics of the marketplace to understand how they appeal to people and affect people’s experience. This is important to ensure that the development of sustainable urban marketplace can continue to flourish in the future, alongside their rich heritage values. This paper aims to give an overview of existing studies that have been done on understanding place and place characteristics, the urban marketplace and the dimensions of customers’ experience. The method is carried through an in-depth literature review on the attributes of place characteristics, aspects of the customer’s experience of place and qualities of urban marketplace.
