Days after MSC Cruises announced the inauguration of the world’s largest cruise terminal at Port Miami, the title has already been moved to China, on the other side of the world.

China has begun operations at the Xiamen International Cruise Terminal 2, with the departure of Cruise Ship Adora Mediterranea, earlier known as Costa Mediterranea, from the port city of Xiamen in Fujian Province.

The event not only marked the beginning of operations from the new terminal but also the inauguration of what is now the largest international cruise terminal complex in the world, in terms of total floor area.

It covers 68,000 m2 on 6 floors above ground and 2 floors underground.

Terminal 2 is much bigger than MSC Cruises Terminal AA in Miami, which is around 45,787 m2 in area.

China’s new cruise terminal is a part of the Xiamen International Cruise Ship Center, which was built to support China in becoming a major player in international cruise tourism.
