12. Kansai International Airport
Kansai International Airport (KIX) is not just an airport; it’s a stunning blend of art, engineering, and Japanese elegance floating on the sea! Designed by the legendary Renzo Piano, this airport stretches gracefully across a man-made island in Osaka Bay, with a sleek, wave-like terminal that mirrors the sky and water around it.
Inside, you’ll find open, airy spaces filled with natural light, cultural displays, and peaceful touches that reflect Japan’s eternal charm.
But it’s not just beautiful; it’s built to survive earthquakes and typhoons too! Whether you’re landing or taking off, KIX makes travel feel easily peaceful and wonderfully unique.
