Meanwhile, a billion people are waking up to the possibilities of fast cars, smartphones, broadband Internet and credit cards. Some of Chinas most rapidly developing cities are virtually unheard of in the West but for every overnight economic success story, there seems to be a hidden swathe of near misses, dead ends and bankruptcies.

This area is famed for its rapidly expanding population and developing urban areas the region of Inner Mongolia boasting a higher GDP than even Beijing itself. Inner Mongolia is an interesting place. Once the birthplace of Genghis Khan, only 7. Chinas predominant Han ethnicity, while 1. Mongol origin. It was once a part of Greater Mongolia, though consecutive Chinese empires and the latter day rise of the Communist Party saw Inner Mongolia moulded and cast, time and time again, as a subservient province of China. Interestingly however, Inner Mongolia is one of the only places in the world that still uses traditional Mongolian script. While Mongolia itself adopted Cyrillic during the communist years, perhaps the Mongols of China felt they had more to prove clinging fiercely on to their heritage, and with it, the ancient characters that still now appear on street signs across Ordos and Kangbashi. When a conglomeration of property developers began planning a new urban centre just outside the existing city of Ordos in 2. Kangbashi New Area, Ordos seemed set to become the futuristic jewel in Chinas crown of city states. However, nobody quite anticipated how quickly this new development would fall flat on its face. Deadlines werent met, loans went unpaid, and investors pulled out before projects could be completed leaving entire streets of unfinished buildings. The ridiculous cost of accommodation in this dream city put off many would be inhabitants, so that even fully completed apartments became difficult to sell. According to one local taxi driver I spoke to, many of those who did make the move to Kangbashi were already abandoning their homes and breaking out of the ghost town. While some developers still labour on with their thankless construction projects, others are busy slashing prices. Typical housing prices in Kangbashi have fallen from 1,1. Nowadays the Kangbashi district, planned to accommodate a population in excess of one million, is home to a lonely 2. A November 2. 00. Al. Jazeera exposed the city of Ordos to a worldwide audience, and the story was run the next year by Time Magazine. Pretty soon, Ordos had earned the accolade of Chinas Ghost City. Journalists and photographers representing a number of world renowned publications have since been to capture Kangbashis empty streets, its row upon row of apartment blocks abandoned mid construction. But for all that, none of these reports seemed to venture far from the city centre and its adjoining streets resulting in broad, post apocalyptic cityscapes that left much to the imagination. The more I read about Ordos, the more I wanted to know what lay beyond these hastily fitted doors and windows to actually see inside, and under the skin of a city that never came to be. Last year, my dream became a reality. I teamed up with Gareth from Young Pioneer Tours a man just about crazy enough to share my fascination for this otherworldly ghost metropolis and together we started planning our journey into Inner Mongolia. Arrival in Ordos. The city of Ordos is served by the newly built Eerduosi Airport. From the moment we got off our plane, it was apparent that someone, sometime, had made grand plans for this city. The futuristically sculpted terminal building is decked out with fountains and hanging baskets, chic coffee shops and sub lit escalators glowing in shades of green and blue. While the population of Ordos is now just 1. Mongolian to 9. 0 Chinese, nevertheless the airport was resplendent with proud icons of a Mongolian heritage effigies of horses and minstrels gaze down across the central concourse, while the departure hall features a vast mural, a ring of painted scenes depicting the life of Genghis Khan. For all this opulence though, the airport was close to empty. We took the second of two daily flights from Beijing to Eerduosi departing from the smaller, former military airfield in the suburbs of the capital. It brought us to Inner Mongolia after dark, and we hopped onto the transfer coach headed towards Ordos city centre. We were on this luxurious coach for around half an hour, enthroned in soft reclining seats replete with cup holders, leg rests and a movie channel all the while, half seen hulks of concrete and metal sped past our windows, distant, shadowy shapes appearing and disappearing out of the gloom. I felt hemmed in on all sides by invisible construction sites. It was hard to make out much of our surroundings, given the bright interior lighting on the coach. On the final stretch into Ordos however, we passed by the shell of a stadium to be the vast, skeletal seating areas rose up in a ring around a central playing field, lit by industrial spotlights and the regular, telltale flares of several hundred welding guns. Never in my life have I seen anything so closely resembling the second Death Star. We arrived in Ordos sometime in the early hours of the morning, checked our bags into a hotel, and grabbed a beer for the road. The city centre is not a long way off completion it has shops and apartments, cafs, bars and restaurants. For all this seeming normality however, downtown Ordos is presided over by a series of doom struck towers, grey office buildings, flats and shopping malls and most of them are completely empty. We walked for a few hours, past restaurants, bars, casinos and sex shops. The lights were shining bright in every establishment, but the people were nowhere to be seen. Cutting through one backstreet, we passed the pink lights of a brothel. The shop front was lined in wide, glass windows, to expose a troupe of young girls stood as if on parade in a wardrobe of matching lingerie. These dozen or so prostitutes numbered more than any pedestrians wed managed to count all evening. Everywhere, there seemed to be a show of readiness of establishments with their doors thrown wide open, not just to welcome guests but also, perhaps, to prove a point. To show this city for the functional, hospitable destination that it so desperately wants to be. Shrink Movie Watch Online there. We tried to get something to eat at a backstreet restaurant, approaching the doorway where local kids were fighting with a water hose. Do you have food we asked. Come in, come in, they said, gesturing at a dimly lit booth within, at the fridge beside it stocked with cold noodles and soft drinks. There was no sign of an adult on the premises, no sight nor smell of a chef at work. As with so much else in Ordos, the lights were on but nobody was home.
