Langzhong Gucheng Airport is an airport serving the city of Langzhong in Southwest China's Sichuan Province. It is located in the town of Shilong (石龙) in Langzhong. This airport named after Lanzhong's historic city centre.[1]
Construction for the airport first began in 1994, after receiving approval from the national government of China in August 1992.[2] However, work was later stopped for shortage of funds.[3] Meanwhile, nearby Guangyuan Panlong Airport and Nanchong Gaoping Airport, which were started later, were completed and opened to the public.
In December 2018, construction for Langzhong Airport resumed after a hiatus of more than 20 years, as the growing popularity of Langzhong as a tourist destination provides new justification for building the airport. The construction budget is 960 million yuan, and the airport opened on December 17, 2023.[4] [5]
Langzhong Airport has a 3600m (11,800feet) runway (class 4C) and a 7000m2 terminal building.
