The Ninth Wonder Of the Ancient World
The airport is situated in the cradle of one of the earliest civilizations – The Shu Kingdom, believed to have existed in the eleventh and twelfth centuries BC and dubbed as “the Ninth Wonder of the Ancient World”. One of its artifacts unearthed in the heart of Chengdu City in 2001, a sophisticated golden foil, is the Sun and Immortal Bird ornament which has become the official logo of Chengdu City, hence the iconic architecture of Chengdu Tianfu International Airport depicting the golden Sun Bird. This endless cycle aptly illustrates the perennial flow of millions of travelers passing through this airport annually.

First Impression Matters
While travelers come to savor the ancient culture, modern conveniences are expected when crossing the portal. Therefore, the “Sun Bird” Airport aims to process check-ins within 30 seconds with the deployment of more than 170 check-in kiosks. GT, a Chengdu home-grown and globally known touch solution provider, was honored with the task to provide the touch monitors for these kiosks.

Proven and Cherished
Known for their robustness, reliability and responsiveness, GT’s touch displays are affectionately adopted by several renowned kiosk builders with airport deployment in different continents. Understandably, the deployment in Chengdu Tianfu International Airport is extra special in GT’s history. Passengers commend the instantaneous accuracy and delay-free operation of the touch monitor, a standard maintained even after hundreds of thousands of hours of use. On top of the sights and sounds of the rich and ancient culture in Sichuan, travelers can also sense the “Sun Bird” airport’s modern advancements when checking in for their flights, leaving their “fingerprints” in this mystical wonderland.
