In this regard, and in order to create a suitable platform for the development of tourism, especially in tourist destination cities, appropriate urban governance and reaching its characteristics is essential. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the importance and performance of each of the indicators of appropriate governance in the city of Yazd, the World Heritage city. In this way, on the one hand, the most significant and insignificant indicators are determined, and on the other hand, the performance of each of the indicators is determined so that the deficiencies are taken into account and plans are made to improve the conditions. The present study is applied in terms of purpose and in terms of method is among the descriptive-survey studies. Library and field methods, including interviews and questionnaires, have been used to collect data. The statistical population is experts who have a PhD degree in urban affairs. For sampling among experts, the method of judgment sampling, which is one of the methods of purposive sampling, has been used. IPA method has been used to analyze the data. The research findings show that in terms of importance, participation with an average of 7.00, accountability and justice with an average of 6.60 are the most important, and consensus indicators with an average of 3.80, transparency and decentralization with an average of 4.00 are known as least important indicators. On the other hand, in terms of performance, the efficiency and effectiveness indicator with an average of 6.60 has the highest performance and participation with an average of 3.80, accountability, responsibility and security with an average of 4.20 has the lowest performance. On the other hand, according to the results of t-correlation test and considering that the value of Sig (significant level) in all indicators is zero and less than 0.05, so the difference in averages in all indicators is significant and on the other hand, the result of the relationship between (P-I) is negative in most indicators, which shows the distance of all indicators from the ideal situation.
