To green the Gobi and support the earth, 3TREES held a grand for its 2nd Journey of Hsuan Tsang Leadership Camp on the evening of May 9, when Hong Jie, Chairman of 3TREES, led 108 executives and partners to gather in Guazhou County, Gansu Province, sounding the clarion call of 3TREES’s Gobi 2 participants to aspire for the distance in 2019, and heated passion was echoing!

Hsuan Tsang pursued his dream with a firm belief, and shaped the soul of the times with his beliefs and ideals more than 1,300 years ago, and Chairman Hong led 60 troops of 3TREES’s Iron Army for walks and cultivation of their souls in the Gobi Desert in 2018; the sea of sand would once again be imprinted with the footsteps and metamorphosis of the 3TREES people in 2019.

Seals were issued to the veteran Gobi goers who participated in the Gobi Challenge for the second time by 3TREES and the honorary captains of each team at the ceremony, so that in the coming four days, 3TREES Gobi 2 teams would once again challenge the 112-kilometer Gobi Desert, under the scorching sun, winds and sand, re-take Hsuan Tsang's westbound road, start a molding journey and write another chapter of green legends.

And the 4 days and 3 nights of journey would witness the 108 members of 3TREES’s Gobi 2 teams taking the challenge talking with the heavens and the earth, and with themselves, feeling the power of harmony between man and nature, realizing the true meaning of life, and meeting their better selves and fellows. So that would be a journey for the soul. Let's look forward to the laughter and tears through to the end!
