It depends on the type of airplane your referring to. The amphibious airplanes are able to belly-down on water, and bush planes that have floats attached to where the landing gear would be can also land on water. Bush planes (like Cessnas), crop-duster airplanes, ultra lights and most single or double-seater experimental airplanes can land on areas where there is no pavement, like in an open field, in a opening in the forest, on a road, or even on the side of a mountain (at least where it's level). But most other airplanes, like a 747 carrier jet or an F-18 fighter need paved runways that built for such airplanes to land on.
