A miracle sprouts in the Ordos desert

After more than 30 years turning deserts green, Yin Yuzhen, a farmer in Ordos, Inner Mongolia autonomous region, can see the miracle.

She and her family have planted approximately 60,000 trees in recent years across more than 4,000 hectares of what was once barren land deep in the heart of the Maowusu Desert, among the largest of its kind in the country.

"There has been a dramatic change in my home from decades ago," the 52-year-old told Chinese media.
