Summer greenery: Baotou's green transformation

Updated: 2025-07-03

Gangtie Avenue and Jianshe Road are two iconic roads in Baotou, epitomizing the city's remarkable green transformation. Once an industrial artery leading to steel plants, Gangtie Avenue is now a vibrant green corridor lined with poplars, pines, and spruce, connecting parks that bloom in seasonal splendor. 

Jianshe Road stretches 10 kilometers, boasting lush greenery alongside landmarks, such as the cultural palace and the vast Saihan Tala urban grassland – Asia's largest urban prairie. A total of 121 parks and squares combined with abundant verdant trees demonstrate the health of Baotou's ecological environment. 

From barren Gobi Desert to a thriving green oasis, Baotou's ecological revival shines through these transformed boulevards, inviting visitors to experience its vibrant harmony between urban life and nature.
