“Urban Vision”, Conference of International Architects for Kharkhorum City was held yesterday in Kharkhorin soum of Uvurkhangai aimag, jointly organized by the Ministry of Construction and Urban Development and the Administrative Office in Charge of the New Kharkhorum City Development. The President of Mongolia Khurelsukh Ukhnaa issued a decree in December 2022 to restore the ancient capital of the Great Mongol Empire, Kharkhorum in Orkhon Valley, aimed at creating healthy and safe living conditions for citizens, improving accessibility to basic social services, decentralizing the population, ensuring a balanced development of the regions, and strengthening the valuable heritage of the state. Architects, specialists, and academics from Mongolia, the Russian Federation, the Republic of Kazakhstan, Japan, and Israel participated in the conference and exchanged opinions on the concept of Kharkhorum city planning and the development trends of global cities. New Kharkhorum city planning is based on the concept of being the center of Mongolia's government, administration, culture, tourism, health services, international relations, and high-tech industry. Kharkhorum city will cover Uvurkhangai and Arkhangai aimags, having a population of approximately 500,000 people and 50 percent of the residential area will be green space, while 70 percent will be areas for walking, cycling, and public transportation. According to the city development concept, the new city will be an economically independent, modern smart city with developed infrastructure, which uses surface water, recycles waste, reuses gray water, and uses various types of renewable energy.
