"Terminal 3 is a landmark representing the image of Guangzhou city. Since its opening, it has attracted over 10,000 visitors daily," said Peng Xiaolin, general manager of the Second Aviation Branch of Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport.

"It serves not only as a core carrier of an international aviation hub but also as an ideal stage for 'cultural + fashion' high-end shows," Peng added.

She said the airport aims to continue developing its reputation as an art-loving terminal by incorporating more art installations and hosting cultural exhibitions.

Utilizing the Canton Fair and the 240-hour visa-free transit policy, the airport plans to offer Greater Bay Area cultural and tourism route recommendations to international travelers, she added.
