Construction began on 3 December 2008 with a total investment of 850 million yuan, and the airport was opened on 28 August 2014.[1] Owing to the lack of flat land in the mountainous region, more than 60 hilltops were leveled to create the runway.[1]

Facilities

The airport has one runway that is 2,200 meters long and 45 meters wide, and a 4,200 square-meter terminal building.[1] It can handle three flights per hour.
