Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA)

It may seem unusual to talk about an airport, but the international airport of Kuala Lumpur is simply unusual. Already unusual is its location, about an one hour drive away from that area of Kuala Lumpur, that could be considered as city zone. But just as unusual is its large scale architecture, that I like very much.
 

Ticket counters and customs barrier are housed in a big common hall, that is covered by a tree-like roof. Something else, that contributes to the very special atmosphere which can't be described here, is the conspicuous low busyness at this airport.
 

The departure hall, where you get by a small electric train (the so called Sky Train), is a little lower than the main building but not less spectacular. In the middle of the building, there is a inner courtyard, filled with tropical plants. A strange view, if you are not used to the situation that inside it is colder than outside (the air conditioning systems seems to have big power reserves).
