Today, tourism is not limited to affluent and wealthy families. Instead, millions of people visit new places; while a new era of tourism has begun as it evolves, many exogenous factors will affect it. Progress and development of technology and the specialization of various sciences such as architecture and environmental issues are among the factors that affect the strengthening of the tourism industry. One of the criteria and strategies in architecture and green design attention to the coverage of the architectural site so that the most use of God-given resources is renewable be and withstand the minor energy consumption. An essential strategy in our traditional residential architecture was the gardens of Iranian houses, considered gardens with many valuable uses. The research aims to create a residential and tourist complex, protect the natural identity and ecological function, and establish a relationship between the building and nature, not in the surrounding nature. This specific composition creates another phenomenon to achieve a key feature of sustainable development. In this article, we consider Sari; we have studied the characteristics of semi-warm and arid climates with valuable old textures. The results of the study showed that in most of the principles introduced in modern sustainable architecture in the twentieth century, the ancient architecture of this city is well observed. To conduct this research, descriptive method- analysis has been used.
