Incredible video shows Chinese workers building an airport at 5,900ft high after chop off the top of a MOUNTAIN

在一段令人难以置信的视频中，工人凿平山顶，在5900英尺的山上修建机场

Chinese workers have moved mountains to build a new airport, quite literally.

工人为了修建新机场而几度移山。

Workers in Chongqing have flattened the top of a mountain 1,800 metres (5,900 feet) above the sea level in order to construct the 1.64 billion yuan (£191.4 million) Wushan Airport.

重庆的工人将高出海平面1800米(5900英尺)的山顶夷为平地，修建造价人民币16.4亿元(1.914亿英镑)的巫山机场。

The impressive facility is due to open next year.

这个令人印象深刻的机场将于明年开放。

Wushan Airport is located on the top of Taohua Mountain 15 kilometres (9.3 miles) outside Wushan Town in eastern Chongqing, a municipality in China.

巫山机场位于重庆市东部巫山镇外15公里(9.3英里)的桃花山山顶。

The domestic airport will have one runway measuring 2,600 metres (8,530 feet) long and 45 metres (147 feet) wide.

这个国内机场将有一条长2600米(8530英尺)，宽45米(147英尺)的跑道。

The airport will also have an apron that could accommodate five planes.

机场还将有一个可容纳五架飞机的停机坪。

Because the region is so mountainous, construction workers had to use dynamite to blow up the mountain top in order to create space for the airport.

由于这里属于多山地区，建筑工人不得不使用炸药炸平山顶，为机场创造空间。

The project started six years ago and the airport is expected to complete by the end of June, according to Wushan government.

巫山政府表示，该项目始于六年前，预计机场将于6月底完工。

Footage taken in May shows determined workers building the airport as they operated cranes on the site and erecting the terminal, which occupies 3,500 square metres (37,673 square feet).

5月份拍摄的画面显示，意志坚定的工人们热火朝天地在工地上操作起重机，并搭建了占地3500平方米(37673平方英尺)的航站楼。

Liao Haobo, the deputy director of the Wushan Airport project, told cqnews that on the busiest days the construction site would have more than 2,000 builders and 800 machines working at the same time.

巫山机场项目副主任廖浩波告诉华龙网，在最繁忙的施工日里，该建筑工地会有2000多名工人和800台机器同时工作。

Wushan Airport is built to help divert air traffic from the Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport, the main air hub of the city of Chongqing that handled 39.66 million passengers in 2017.

巫山机场是为了帮助分流重庆江北国际机场的空运而修建的。重庆江北国际机场是重庆的主要航空枢纽，2017年一共接待了3966万名乘客。

By 2020, Wushan Airport is expected to handle 280,000 passengers, 1,200 tonnes of freight as well as 3,333 landings and takeoffs annually.

到2020年，巫山机场预计每年将接待28万名乘客，运送1200吨货物，起降3333驾次航班。

It is set to open in the first half of 2019, offering flights to Beiing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chongqing and other major cities in China.

该机场将于2019年上半年开放，将运营飞往北京、上海、广州、重庆等主要城市的航班。

It is also expected to boost local tourism because it is situated close to the famous Goddess Peak and Three Gorges Dam.

由于该机场靠近著名的神女峰和三峡大坝，将促进当地旅游业的发展。

The topo map shows that Taohua Mountain had a long wide low relief undulating summit. Not that much "chop" required.

地形图显示，桃花山有一个长而宽的平缓起伏的峰顶。不需要凿掉太多就能平。

I America we can't build anything because Lawyers and leftist Environmental attack groups halt everything for decades. a bridge takes 10 years or more....We need to export these groups to China and make them destroy that country

我是美国人，我们什么都造不出来，因为律师和左翼环保组织几十年来叫停一切项目，修建一座桥需要10年或更长时间....我们需要把这些团体出口到，让他们来摧毁这个国家

If China wants a new airport, they cap a mountain... in the UK they build another runway instead of another much bigger airport.

如果想要修建一个新机场，他们可以建在山顶……在英国，他们选择修建另一条跑道，而不是另一个大得多的机场。

China's people have built railroads in the west with many people dying as well as many other huge projects others couldn't handle. Greed always comes into the picture no matter who is building something. I still will never go out on a glass built bridge no matter who builds it but an airport.. Only time will tell if this is a good place or a bad one, right?

人民在西方修建了铁路，许多人死在那里，还有许多其它人都束手无策的大型项目。不管谁在建造什么东西，贪婪总是如影随形。无论是谁建造的，除了机场，我永远都不会去走玻璃桥。只有时间才能证明这是好地方还是坏地方，对吧?
