Imagine a sea of golden grasslands stretching as far as the eye can see, dotted with vibrant autumn hues. Welcome to the Saihanba Plateau in north China’s Hebei Province – a man-made miracle that’s become the ultimate autumn escape!
Once degraded land, this UNESCO-recognized site (Champions of the Earth 2017, baby! ) now thrives with over 1,000 plant and animal species. Talk about a glow-up!
From rare birds to wildflowers that pop against amber landscapes, it’s like nature’s own TikTok trend.
Pro tip for travelers: National Day holiday is prime time to see Saihanba’s grasslands transform into a golden wonderland. Pack your camera – this eco-success story doubles as the ultimate Instagram backdrop.
Fun fact: The afforestation project here proves that humans and nature can thrive together. Who said environmental wins can’t be scenic?
