            • 1. A True Forest of Wonder
              Saihanba National Forest Park is lying in Chengde, Hebei.
              In Mongolian, Saihanba means "beautiful highland".It is often called "the Green Lung of north China". On Dec 5, 2017, the United Nations' highest environmental honor, the Champions of the Earth Award was given to China's Saihanba Afforestation Community(塞罕坝林场建设者).
              During the Qing Dynasty,it was a royal hunting(打猎) ground and the emperors hunted there almost every year. In 1863, because of a shortage of funds, the Qing Government allowed farmers to use the land here. In the following years, logging and wildfires gradually destroyed the forest and grassland. And forests and wetlands were beginning to disappear.After the Qing Dynasty failed, Saihanba turned into a wasteland.
              In the 1960s, Chinese people started to recreate a national forest in Saihanba. In 1961, a group of six scientists traveled through Saihanba and studied the possibility of growing trees there. They finally found one tree standing alone in the vast land, which greatly encouraged them. If one tree could survive there, so could millions of others. They believed they could green the barren desert and turn it into an oasis(绿洲).
              Three generations of forest guards have overcome extreme living conditions while protecting the landscape. The weather, in particular, can be intense as highest temperature in the area is around 33degrees Celsius, while the lowest is around -43degrees Celsius, and some areas are covered in snow for seven months a year, but others are affected by strong winds and sandstorms. However, through great efforts, it took the forest guards over 55years to turn the desert into a green land.
              Chinese people have created a true wonder in Saihanba over the past half-century. In May 1993, it was designated as a "National Forest Park".In 2000, it has been categorized as a 5A level tourist site by the China National Tourism Administration. In May 2007, the park was rated as a "National Nature Reserves"by the State Council of China. Today, Sihanba is known as the "Emerald of North China". It is very important for Beijing's water and air quality. It is also a natural shield(屏障)that can block sandstorms.
