全世界只有這6個國家沒有機場!

推薦人: 來源: 閱讀: 1.75W 次

When you're traveling to another country, the first thing you probably do is book your flight. In just a handful of countries, though, you won't be able to fly directly.

當你去另一個國家旅行時,你可能要做的第一件事就是預訂機票。然而,在少數幾個國家,你是沒法直接飛行抵達的。

As a 109-acre area nestled in the middle of Rome, Vatican City doesn't have its own airport, but visitors can easily get there via Italy's capital.

梵蒂岡位於羅馬中部,面積只有109英畝。這個國家沒有機場,但是遊客可以通過意大利首都羅馬輕鬆抵達。

Similarly, San Marino is also surrounded by Italian land. The fifth smallest country in the world has a little more than 33,000 residents and sits just nine miles from Federico Fellini International Airport in Rimini, Italy.

同樣,聖馬力諾也被包圍在意大利的領土之中。作爲全球第五小的國家,它有3.3萬名居民,距離意大利裏米尼的費德里科·費里尼國際機場僅9英里。

To visit Monaco -- the second-smallest country in the world, right behind the Vatican -- you'll have to go through France's Nice Cote d'Azur International Airport, which is just a 25-minute car ride away from Monaco, which has a population of just 38,500. (Maybe that's why developers didn't bother creating anything like the 16-minute shortest flight in America.)

要前往世界上第二小的國家摩納哥--排名僅次於梵蒂岡--你得經由位於法國尼斯市的藍色海岸國際機場,而該機場距人口只有3.85萬的摩納哥只有25分鐘的車程。(或許這就是爲什麼開發商懶得創建一個像美國境內只有16分鐘的最短航班。)

全世界只有這6個國家沒有機場!

Interestingly enough, the third and fourth smallest countries, Nauru and Tuvalu, respectively, have their own airports; the fifth and sixth smallest don't.

有意思的是,世界上第三和第四小的國家--瑙魯和圖瓦盧--都分別擁有自己的機場;而第五和第六小的國家卻沒有。

We already mentioned San Marino, and to get to Liechtenstein, you'll have to go through Switzerland's St. Gallen-Altenrhein Airport, 24 miles away from the capital.

我們已經提到了聖馬力諾(第五小國),那麼如果你要去列支敦士登,你就必須經由距該國首都24英里遠、位於瑞士的聖加侖阿爾滕萊茵機場。

No such luck trying to fly into Andorra -- which only requires a 25-mile drive to get from one end of the country to the other-either.

想要直接飛到安道爾,也是不行的,因爲從該國邊境一端到達另一端僅需25英里的車程。

Sitting in a Pyrenees mountain range valley means building an airport runway would be difficult, so visitors can arrive through Spain or France. The closest option to Andorra's capital is Girona-Costa Brava Airport in Spain.

安道爾位於比利牛斯山脈山谷,這意味着建造機場跑道的難度很大,因此,遊客可以經由西班牙或法國到達安道爾。抵達安道爾首都的最短路徑是通過西班牙的赫羅納機場。

Finally, there are no airports directly in the Palestinian Territories, but Ben Gurion International Airport in Israel is just 26 miles away from Bethlehem.

最後一個,巴勒斯坦,其領土上也沒有機場,但是以色列的本古裏安機場距伯利恆(巴勒斯坦西岸城市)只有26英里。
