Asuncion Skyline
A clear view of the historic center and the newer high-rises of the Aviadores del Chaco district.
Lake Ypacaraí
Paraguay's most famous lake, easily identifiable by its size and the town of San Bernardino on its shore.
Itaipu Reservoir
The southern side of the flight path provides glimpses of the massive water reserve of the Itaipu Dam.
Castelo Branco Highway
The massive traffic artery that cuts through the interior of São Paulo toward the capital.
São Paulo Megacity
An endless horizon of skyscrapers and urban density that is best appreciated during the final approach.
The right side is superior for urban enthusiasts. Keep your camera ready about 10-15 minutes after takeoff for Lake Ypacaraí. On the approach to GRU, aircraft often fly a pattern that showcases the sheer scale of São Paulo's residential and business districts to the right.

One of the last large areas of Atlantic Forest in the state of São Paulo.
Cantareira Range
