Which side of the plane to sit from Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport (Guangzhou) to Bijie Feixiong Airport (Bijie)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers superior views of the dramatic Nanling Mountain range and the spectacular transition from the humid southern plains to the rugged canyons of the Guizhou Plateau.
Nanling Mountain Range
Massive, jagged ridges that form the natural and climatic barrier between Guangdong and Hunan provinces.
River Tributaries
Winding silver ribbons of the North River system cutting deep channels through the limestone terrain.
Guizhou Canyons
Spectacular, deep river-cut canyons that are hallmarks of the high-altitude Guizhou plateau landscape.
Feixiong Approach
A dramatic descent into the mountain-carved Bijie airport, offering a panoramic view of the rugged peaks.
Highly recommended for morning flights to see the 'Sea of Clouds' often trapped between the Nanling ridges. During the final 20 minutes of flight, look closely for massive high-altitude engineering projects, including some of the world's highest bridges crossing the valleys.
Greater Bay Area Edge
The dense urban fabric of Foshan and Zhaoqing fading into the green hills of western Guangdong.
Guangxi Karst Peaks
Iconic limestone formations characteristic of the region, resembling traditional Chinese ink paintings.
Guizhou High Valleys
Mist-shrouded valleys dotted with remote ethnic villages and terraced agricultural plots.
Sit on this side for afternoon flights to avoid the harsh glare of the sun. Within the first 30 minutes, watch for the sharp geographical boundary where the flat Pearl River Delta ends and the vertical karst pillars begin.
