A spectacular aerial view of the famous Nandi Hills and its surrounding greenery immediately after lifting off from BLR.
Narmada River
The wide and sacred Narmada River is visible in its full glory during the descent phase into the Indore region.
Indore Cityscape
A clear view of the growing Indore metropolis, including the distinct contrast between old city density and new developments.
Patalpani Valley

The right side is best for morning departures to see Nandi Hills illuminated by the rising sun. During the final 15 minutes of the flight, look out for the massive Narmada River; it is the primary landmark indicating you are entering the Malwa region. For the best photography of Indore city, a window seat behind the wing is recommended to avoid engine heat haze.
