This conceptual chapter examines the concept of ‘urban amnesia’, which refers to the forgotten information within a city. The focus is on Gaza, which has faced continuous occupations and conflicts over the past 75 years, unlike many other cities that have enjoyed peace since World War II. The chapter aims to map the spatial markers of Gaza's long-term occupation through urban amnesia and draw conclusions about the future of Asian cities that might face similar threats, such as Kabul (Afghanistan); Lahore (Pakistan); Srinagar (India); Yangon (Myanmar); Bangkok (Thailand); Hanoi (Vietnam); Seoul (South Korea); Tehran (Iran); Beirut (Lebanon); Jakarta (Indonesia); and Bishkek (Kyrgyzstan). Data were collected through a literature review and document analysis, employing thematic content analysis of eight significant urban spaces in Gaza, using the codes ‘unforgettable-event’ and ‘spatial trace of experience.’ The chapter begins with a theoretical exposition of urban amnesia, followed by an exploration of Gaza's unique context. Insights are derived regarding the future of Asian cities in potential conflict scenarios, emphasising the need to safeguard urban elements that connect them to their land, culture, and identity. The end of Gaza's occupation represents a crucial hope for a peaceful future for conflict-prone cities in Asia, highlighting the moral and legal responsibilities of humanity.
