Isospectrality of planar domains which are obtained by successive unfolding of a fundamental building block is studied in relation to iso-length spectrality of the corresponding domains. Although an explicit and exact trace formula such as Poisson's summation formula or Selberg's trace formula is not known to exist for planar domains, equivalence between isospectrality and iso-length spectrality in a certain setting can be proved by employing the matrix representation of "transplantation of eigenfunctions". As an application of the equivalence, transplantable pairs of domains, which are all isospectral pairs of planar domains and therefore counter examples of Kac's question "can one hear the shape of a drum?", are numerically enumerated and it is found at least up to the domain composed of 13 building blocks transplantable pairs coincide with those constructed by the method due to Sunada.
