A Working Group, established to support the Government of Mongolia 2023 Resolution on building New Kharkhorum City in the Orkhon Valley, Uvurkhangai aimag, visited the Urban Planning Administration tasked with overseeing the city's development on December 17, 2024.
The Urban Planning Administration currently operates with 27 out of 30 positions filled. Its responsibilities include developing planning frameworks, legal regulations, infrastructure strategies, and investment policies to facilitate New Kharkhorum City's establishment. According to the Head of the Administration, N. Natsagdorj, foundational research has been completed, including potable water resource assessments, engineering geological and topographical surveys, environmental impact evaluations, and archaeological and paleontological studies.
In March 2024, an International Competition for the New Kharkhorum City Concept was announced to define the city's vision, development priorities, planning principles, and general design. A total of 426 teams from 54 countries registered, with 76 teams submitting proposals. From these, 36 proposals from 18 countries were shortlisted and are currently informing the city's planning process.

Reflecting this heritage, the new city is planned as a cultural and tourism hub that will also focus on high-tech industries. It is designed to adhere to green development principles, creating a smart, eco-friendly environment. The city will cover 189,363 hectares, support a population of 500,000, and feature green spaces that make up 50 percent of residential areas.
