Imagine stepping out of your home and finding a lush green park just a short stroll away! That's the vision Beijing has for its residents. By 2024, the city plans to ensure that 91% of its people have access to parks and small green areas within 500 meters of their homes. 🌳
At the recent work conference of the Beijing Municipal Forestry and Parks Bureau, Gao Dawei, the head of the bureau, shared this exciting news. \"We aim to turn Beijing into a garden city nestled in forests,\" he said. Isn't that amazing?
To make this dream a reality, Beijing is gearing up to complete the afforestation of 10,000 mu (that's about 666.67 hectares) and add another 200 hectares of urban green space next year. 🌱
This initiative isn't just about planting trees; it's about enhancing the quality of life for millions. More green spaces mean cleaner air, cooler temperatures, and a more beautiful cityscape. Plus, who doesn't love a picnic in the park or a leisurely afternoon under the shade of a tree?
For all the adventurers and nature lovers out there, Beijing's green transformation is something to look forward to. So next time you visit the city, you might just find yourself surrounded by nature in the heart of the metropolis! 🏞️
