The Ordos Museum stands in Kangbashi, Ordos, in Inner Mongolia. MAD Architects designed it for the local government of Ordos, and Huhehaote Construction built it. The article gives no start or opening dates, style or materials.

The museum houses collections on the local history of Ordos and the surrounding area. It covers about 41,000 square feet (3,800 m2) as a large open-plan space, with exhibition space on six levels. The article says the design draws on the Gobi Desert and on the work of Buckminster Fuller.

The article names no operator and gives no opening hours or admission. It places the museum at 39°36′ north and 109°46′ east, in the new district of Kangbashi, and describes the plan as one large open space with no further detail.
