Things to do in Longdongbao International Airport
Guiyang is the capital of Guizhou Province — a mountainous, culturally rich region with some of China's most extraordinary natural landscapes and one of its greatest concentrations of ethnic minority diversity. Qianling Park in the city has forested hills, resident rhesus monkeys, and the hillside Hongfu Temple, all accessible for free. Guiyang's suan tang yu (sour fish hotpot) and distinctive Miao and Dong minority cuisine make the food scene a destination in its own right. The city is the gateway to Huangguoshu Waterfall — the largest in Asia — and the karst caves of Zhijin.
