Ordos Kangbashi boasts some of the most stunning architecture in the world. It's also one of the world's largest ghost towns. In the early part of the 2,000's the Chinese government invested over a billion-dollar into the city, which was a planned utopia with cutting edge buildings and technology. Unfortunately, a downturn in the economy made the city unaffordable and there weren't enough residents to sustain the city. Those that did move in eventually moved away.
