Abstract: This paper analyzes the functional features of Chinese megacities and the problems faced by functional dispersal, as well as China’s current population governance mode and future trends. The paper summarizes the mode and experience of functional dispersal and population governance of megacities in some developed countries, such as US and Japan. And on this basis, it is pointed out that the functional dispersal of China’s megacities includes dis-functionalization, spatial structure optimization and reasonable population diffusion. Also, the paper proposes the basic principles and methods of functional dispersal and population governance of megacities that are suitable to China’s status quo, thus providing a research orientation for the functional dispersal and population governance for megacities.
