Daocheng Yading Airport

Located in the Sichuan-Tibet Autonomous Prefecture of Daocheng, China, Daocheng Yading Airport is a marvel of aviation and transportation engineering. Situated at an elevation of 4,411 meters (14,472 feet), it is the highest airport in the world and is the ultimate test for any pilot. Its runway spans 2,214 meters (7,263 feet) and its state-of-the-art terminal building has been designed to adhere to the strictest safety regulations. The airport's remote location, however, means that it is only serviced by limited domestic flights, but its spectacular scenery, which includes the majestic peaks of the nearby Yading Nature Reserve, more than make up for it. Daocheng Yading Airport is an incredible feat of engineering and a must-see destination for any aviation enthusiast.
