A 30,000-foot airway, Xiangxi is “flying high”

“等一城烟雨，只为你。”沈从文笔下的神秘边城，层林叠嶂的大山，阻隔着村庄和古镇。

当峒河的舟楫，变成滚滚车轮，历史开始改写，这一次她完成了武陵山腹地“高飞”的历史性跨越。

“I’ll wait for the misty rain in the town, just for you.” The mysterious Border Town in Shen Congwen's works is surrounded by mountains that separate villages and the ancient town.

When the oars of Donghe River turned into rolling wheels, history began to rewrite, this time she completed the Wuling Mountain hinterland "flying high" historic leap.

百年后，一条三万英尺的“空中通途”在湘西土家族苗族自治州上方延伸，2023年8月18日，湘西边城机场正式通航，65张“笑脸”满怀期待地从家门口起飞，145分钟后抵达北京。从此，世界到边城，不再遥远。

A 30,000-foot "airway" was extended above Xiangxi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture a hundred years later. On August 18, 2023, Xiangxi Biancheng Airport was officially opened, and 65 "smiling faces" took off from their hometown with high expectations and arrived in Beijing 145 minutes later. From now on, the world is no longer far away from Biancheng.
