The World’s Biggest FAILED Megacity Projects

There’s a 20-lane highway in Myanmar with almost no traffic, luxury apartment towers in Malaysia waiting for residents, and government buildings deep in the Borneo jungle that remain largely empty. Across the world, governments and developers have poured enormous sums into ambitious cities that were planned, funded and built—but never attracted the people they were designed for. This documentary explores why some of the world’s biggest megacity projects failed to deliver on their promises. From China’s Ordos Kangbashi and Malaysia’s Forest City to Egypt’s New Administrative Capital, Indonesia’s Nusantara and Saudi Arabia’s NEOM and The Line, discover how political changes, unrealistic budgets, unaffordable housing and missing demand left these projects stalled or far smaller than planned. Some cities have slowly recovered, while others remain little more than unfinished towers, empty roads and ambitious renderings.
