Beijing Olympics - The stunning new Beijing airport

The terminal has a 3-km long concourse, divided into three sections and connected by a shuttle train. The airport's shuttle train service can ferry passengers around the mammoth airport.

According to Norman Foster, the airport's architect, the airport is 'so big that under a certain amount of light you can't see one end of the building from the other.'
