The stunning new Beijing airport


The roof of the swanky new terminal looks like a dragon from the air with its wing spread running 3.25 km. The giant dragon-shaped terminal is 100 hectares in size: that is as big as 170 soccer fields.

This makes the airport larger than the Pentagon and almost 20 per cent bigger than all five terminals of London's Heathrow put together.
An artist's imagination of the top views of the dragon-shaped Terminal 3 of the Beijing Capital International Airport in Beijing, China.
