Gateway to Lanping in the mountains of Yunnan.

Location
Lanping, China
Lanping Fenghua General Airport is a small regional airport serving Lanping Bai and Pumi Autonomous County in Nujiang Prefecture, Yunnan Province, China. It is classified as a general aviation airport and supports limited scheduled passenger services to connect this remote mountainous region with larger cities. The airport serves an area characterized by rugged terrain along the Nu River (Salween) corridor, where road travel is time-consuming. Its development reflects China's broader policy of expanding aviation infrastructure to underserved rural and ethnic minority regions. Due to its general aviation classification and remote location, passenger traffic and operational details are limited in publicly available sources. It remains one of many small airports developed in Yunnan to improve regional connectivity.
