The Saihanba National Forest Park, Hebei province of China is considered the world's largest man-made forest, covering over 760 SQ KM and transforming a once-barren desert into a thriving ecosystem. It was created through an extensive, multi-generational afforestation project that began in 1962 to combat desertification threatening northern China.
