Wuyishan Airport Terminal Building
Wuyishan Airport has two terminal buildings – Domestic Terminal and International Terminal. The International Terminal looks shabby and lacks in maintenance since there are very few international flights. So when I visited Wuyishan Airport, only the domestic terminal was active.
