2025 Kangbashi District Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

Tucked within the futuristic cityscape of Kangbashi District, the Mongol Chess Square (蒙古象棋广场) is one of the most whimsical and photogenic spots I’ve visited! The square features giant Mongolian-style chess pieces scattered across a massive outdoor chessboard. 🐴🛡️⛳️ Each piece is intricately designed to reflect Mongolian culture, making it more than just a game—it’s a cultural landmark! 📸 A favorite among families, couples, and anyone hunting for that perfect Instagrammable moment. You can walk among them, or just sit back and admire the open space surrounded by Kangbashi’s sleek architecture. #chinatravel #MongolChessSquare #OrdosTravel #CulturalLandmarks #UrbanExploration #GiantChess #蒙古象棋广场 #CityscapeViews #ChinaTravel #FuturisticCity

Kangbashi District, Ordos – Once barren desert, now a stunning political, cultural, and economic hub. In just a few years, this magical city has risen from the sands to become one of China’s most ambitious urban showcases. ✨ Stroll along the Kangbashi Gallery of Culture and Art, where clusters of striking modern buildings glitter under the wide-open sky. Each stop along the avenue feels like stepping into a living architectural exhibition. 📌 Highlights include: • 🐎 Genghis Khan Sculpture Square – honouring the legacy of the great leader in larger-than-life form. • 📚 Ordos Library – shelves designed like open books on display. • 🪨 Ordos Museum – a bold, rock-like presence anchoring the district. • 🎭 Ordos Theater – shaped like a traditional Mongolian headpiece. 💡 Travel Tip: Best explored in summer when the blue skies reflect beautifully off the modern structures. Perfect for urban photography and peaceful strolls. #chinatravel #Kangbashi #OrdosCity #ModernChina #UrbanMiracle #DesertTransformation #InnerMongolia #GenghisKhanSquare #OrdosMuseum #CulturalAvenue #ArchitecturalWonders
