Urban spatial growth differentiation of Guangzhou during the transitional period is studied in this paper. The results indicate that urban space can be divided into four parts: urban district
fringe zone
outer space and regional space. The old urban district is subdivided into commercial
residential
and official areas. The fringe zone is mainly in residential and industrial land use with a sprawl growth pattern. The outer space is mainly in industrial and infrastructure land use with a jump growth pattern. The regional space is mainly in infrastructure land use with an extend pattern. The factors affecting urban spatial growth include grovernment
marketing and community forces. Urban spatial growth of Chinese metropolitans is discussed based on the case study of Guangzhou.
