It started operations on 1 July 2010, becoming the fourth civil airport in Tibet after Lhasa, Nyingchi, and Qamdo airports.〔(''Tibet's fourth civil airport opens'' )〕 Situated at above sea level, Gunsa Airport is the fourth highest airport in the world after Daocheng Yading Airport, Qamdo Bamda Airport, and Kangding Airport.〔(The world’s third highest airport opens with milestone Airbus A319 flight )〕〔(西藏阿里昆莎机场迎来首航 为世界海拔第三高 )〕 Gunsa airport has a 4,500-meter runway. It is expected to handle 120,000 passengers by 2020. Construction began in May 2007 and cost an estimated 1.65 billion yuan (241.22 million U.S. dollars).〔 As Shiquanhe (Ali) is only a one-day bus drive (about 330 km) from the settlement of Darchen situated just north of Lake Mansarovar, facing Mount Kailash,〔Mayhew and Kohn (2005), p. 209.〕 it is expected to benefit pilgrims to these two sites, which are considered sacred by Hindus,〔("Pilgrims to benefit from new Tibet Airport near Mt Kailash." )〕 Buddhists, Bonpa and Jains.〔Albinia (2008), p. 288,〕〔Gyurme (199), p. 36.〕 With the opening of Shigatse Peace Airport in October 2010, the five airports, coupled with the Qinghai–Tibet railway and a network of roads, are expected to increase tourism to scenic and holy sites in Tibet.〔 ==Airlines and destinations== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ngari Gunsa Airport」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
