Direct flights from Shenzhen Bao’an International Airport

General Information About Shenzhen Bao?an International Airport

Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport serves as the primary airport of Shenzhen, a coastal city located in southern China that borders Hong Kong. As one of the busiest airports worldwide, this facility acts as the gateway to mainland China for many airlines from across the globe and ranks amongst some of the busiest hubs.

Shenzhen Airport is located on the east bank of Pearl River near Huangtian and Fuyong villages in Bao'an District and approximately 32km (20 mi) northwest of Shenzhen City Centre. Over time it has grown into one of Asia's most modern and efficient airports with an expansive fleet of aircraft as well as modern infrastructure.

T3 was constructed by Rome-based architect Massimiliano Fuksas and opened for business in 2013. It encases both airside and landside of the airport within its 1.5km-long structure in an intricate honeycomb pattern that diffuses natural lighting for a welcoming interior environment.

T3 marks an unusual departure from the typical pastiche of hi-tech materials found at most Chinese airports, in that its designers envisioned T3 as an environment that humanized technology by recontextualizing earthbound concrete into architectural forms and effects that enhance it.
