The Ordos International Circuit is a motor racing circuit in Ordos , Inner Mongolia , People's Republic of China .

The racetrack was opened in 2010 and designed and built independently by the Chinese. It comprises 18 curves over a length of 3.751 km with height differences of over 30 meters. The route received FIA stage II approval , but can be expanded if necessary. When looking from the air, the route should be reminiscent of a galloping horse, an allusion to the history of Mongolia. Another allusion to this is the Ordos-based Genghis Khan Cup.

As the first international racing series, the Superleague Formula held a race in Ordos on October 3, 2010. In addition, races of the Chinese Touring Car Championship and the Chinese Scirocco Cup took place.
