## Description

Lugu Lake draws hundreds of thousands of visitors a year, yet the airport that serves it stays small: Ninglang Luguhu Airport (IATA: NLH) sits at 3,293 metres in northwest Yunnan and handles only a handful of passenger rotations, mostly to Kunming. Opened in 2015, the field exists for tourism to the lake and the matrilineal Mosuo communities around it. There are no cargo facilities; local produce such as apples and buckwheat moves by truck to Lijiang and Kunming. Air freight for the area is best routed through Kunming Changshui (KMG), southwest China's main cargo airport.
