Search flights from ACX to CKG
Wanfenglin (Peak Forest)
Thousands of cone-shaped limestone peaks stretching across the horizon right after takeoff.
Maling River Canyon
A deep, narrow rift valley known as 'the beautiful scar of the earth' visible near Xingyi.
Wumeng Mountain Range
High-altitude mountain ridges that dominate the landscape of western Guizhou.
Simian Mountain
Lush, dense evergreen forests and steep cliffs as the flight enters the Chongqing municipality.
Sit on the left for the most dramatic view of the 'Ten Thousand Peak Forest' shortly after lift-off from ACX. For the best photography, choose a morning flight to catch the sun illuminating the karst peaks without the harsh afternoon haze common in the Sichuan Basin. Watch for the dramatic transition from the high Guizhou plateau to the lower, misty hills of Chongqing.

Beipan River Gorges
Deep limestone canyons and glimpses of some of the world's highest bridges crossing the valley.
Wu River (Wujiang)
The winding 'Green Gallery' featuring emerald waters cutting through steep vertical cliffs.
Qijiang Terraces
Intricate agricultural terracing on the rolling hills of the southern Chongqing countryside.
Chongqing Urban Sprawl
The massive density of high-rises and the confluence of the Yangtze and Jialing Rivers on final descent.
The right side is superior during the descent into CKG, offering better views of the sprawling 'Mountain City' and its unique river-bend geography. If flying in autumn or winter, look for the 'Sea of Clouds' that often fills the valleys between the karst hills. Keep an eye out for the distinctive red-rock Danxia landforms scattered throughout the southern part of the route.
