Noida, 28 March

(HS): Noida International Airport will not only be a contemporary airport, but

also a living embodiment of Indian culture and traditions. Union Civil Aviation

Minister K. Ram Mohan Naidu said Saturday at the airport's Phase 1 opening that

its architecture and interior design will embrace Uttar Pradesh's tradition,

giving tourists with a unique cultural experience.

The Union

Minister stated during the inauguration that the airport's architecture will

clearly mirror the traditional palaces of Uttar Pradesh. Architectural

characteristics such as arches, courtyards, and traditional structures will

introduce visitors to the state's diverse cultural past. He stated that the

terminal is being designed as a multi-level building inspired by the Ganga

Ghats, providing tourists with a comparable experience to the ghats in Varanasi

and Haridwar. The staircase design, open spaces, and lighting have been

designed to create a spiritual and serene atmosphere.

He said

that traditional handicrafts from various states of the country have been used

in the airport's beautification. This initiative will not only showcase India's

diverse art traditions but also provide a global platform for local and

national artisans. The design of Noida International Airport exemplifies how

cultural identity can be incorporated into modern infrastructure. The

traditional theme combined with high-tech facilities makes it distinct and

unique from other airports.
