China is expanding a large-scale replica of Taipei government buildings at the Zhurihe Training Base in Inner Mongolia. Satellite images reveal that the mock-up site has grown almost three times in size since 2020, raising concerns over China’s escalating efforts to pressure Taiwan.

The images show replicas of key sites, including Taiwan’s Presidential Office Building, the Judicial Yuan, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and, more recently, the Ministry of Defence’s Reserve Command. 


A striking addition is a newly built 280-km tunnel linking the mock Presidential Office Building with the Judicial Yuan; such developments symbolise China’s intent to convey that Taiwan’s leaders could not escape, even if they relied on underground shelters.
