Terminal 3 of the Dubai International Airport was completed in October, 2008. The original airport handles 40 million passengers a year. The new Terminal 3 will add an additional 20 million passengers a year.Dubai is the largest city in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
The airport is already the 20th busiest airport in the world and 11th in cargo shipping. That is expected to grow with the addition of Terminal 3 and the planned Terminal 4.
The architecture of the building echoes the body of an airplane with sweeping wing like galleries, some of which mimic the engines of large passenger planes. 
Stunningly beautiful, the interior of the terminal is both ornate and grand in design.
Opulence is everywhere from the restaurants, shopping arcades and overnight rooms.
There are hints of grandeur from lost empires with the columns and wide open spaces.
