Provided is a turbine airfoil including: a cooling passage that allows a cooling medium to move from a base part side to a tip end part side in an airfoil height direction; a lattice structure including rib sets stacked in a lattice pattern in the cooling passage; inverting portions at opposite side edge portions of the lattice structure, each being open at a side edge portion and allowing the cooling medium to be inverted from a lattice flow passage defined between ribs of one rib set to a lattice flow passage defined between ribs of another rib set; and a communication flow passage defined between one side edge portion of the lattice structure and a side wall surface of the cooling passage, the communication flow passage extending in the airfoil height direction to communicate a plurality of lattice flow passages at the one side edge portion.
