Garhi Chandan Forest Peshawar is one of the biggest Man made Forest of Pakistan.


Garhi Chandan a deserted and barren area on the outskirts of Peshawar towards south, now presents a good example of a success story of converting an arid land into a man-made forest through plantation of 3.2 million plants which mostly converted into trees, changing the landscape of the area making it serene and eye catching for visitors. BTTAP was launched in 2014 by government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa as an emergency response to global warming caused by climatic changes It was a difficult decision to select Garhi Chandan as site for development of forest through massive plantation because the soil is very less nutrient and is fully embedded with rocks and stones. The man-made forest at Garhi Chandan will not only help in containing environmental pollution and combating climate change, but will also benefit local community economically. The whole landscape of Ghari Chandan has been changed after development of the forest which looks like an oasis amidst a vast area of arid and deserted terrain
