Which side of the plane to sit from Bijie Feixiong Airport (Bijie) to Longdongbao Airport (Guiyang)?

Our Recommendation
8.4

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the dramatic Liuchong River canyons and the rugged Karst landscape characteristic of the Guizhou plateau.

Right Side Highlights
8.4
🏔️

Wumeng Mountain Range

The flight path skirts the eastern edge of these massive highlands, offering views of high-altitude ridges.

🌉

Liuchong River Gorge

Breathtaking views of deep canyons and some of the world's highest bridges crossing the vertical drops.

💧

Hongfeng Lake

As the plane nears Guiyang, the expansive blue waters and islands of 'Red Maple Lake' come into view.

🏢

Guiyang Huaxi District

During the final descent, view the modern university town and scenic park areas of southern Guiyang.

This is a very short flight, so keep your window shade up from takeoff. The right side is particularly scenic during sunset flights when the limestone cliffs reflect a golden hue. Try to secure a seat away from the wing to fully appreciate the depth of the river gorges.

🏙️

Bijie Cityscape

Upon departure, observe the dense urban layout of Bijie tucked between steep limestone hills.

🌊

Sancha River

Aerial views of the upper reaches of the Wu River system, featuring winding water paths through deep valleys.

⛰️

Karst Peak Forest

Infinite clusters of cone-shaped hills stretching toward the horizon, a hallmark of South China's topography.

🚜

Terraced Hillside Farms

Intricate agricultural terraces carved into the slopes of the mountains, displaying various colors by season.

Look for the sharp contrast between the industrial outskirts of Bijie and the pristine mountain valleys. Morning flights often catch mist clinging to the Sancha River, creating a mystical atmosphere.
