Dear MEL Topic Readers,

Infographic: Take a panoramic tour of Beijing Daxing International Airport

There are so many “the world’s -est things” in China. The Lake Pontchartrain Causeway is the world’s longest continuous bridge over water. The Hong Kong–Zhuhai–Macau Bridge is the longest sea bridge that spans the Pearl River Delta. The Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope is the world’s largest filled-aperture radio telescope. Shanghai Maglev is the fastest train and Fuxing Hao CR400AF/BF is the fastest rail train in the world.

Now, just a week before its 70th anniversary of the nation, China opened a new gigantic airport near Beijing. It sits only 46 kilometers from the Tiananmen Square connected by two train lines and highway. The starfish-shaped terminal building is packed with state-of-the-art technologies and gadgets to accommodate the needs and convenience for inbound, outbound and transit passengers. There are 268 parking bays and four runways when opened to serve 45 million passengers and will be seven runways for 100 million by 2030.

What’s amazing is that the airport construction completed in less than five years! Indeed, China’s scale and speed in construction and economic growth are both unprecedented in human history.

Enjoy seeing the infographic to learn about this new world’s largest airport.
