Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views of the dramatic Guizhou Plateau transition and a more scenic approach into the Yangtze River valley near Luzhou.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🏔️

Yingde Limestone Forest

Dramatic jagged mountain formations in northern Guangdong visible shortly after reaching cruise altitude.

🌆

Guiyang Cityscape

The mountain-enveloped capital of Guizhou province with its dense clusters of high-rise architecture.

🌊

Yangtze River Meanders

The massive, winding loops of the Yangtze River as the flight crosses into the Sichuan Basin.

✈️

Luzhou Urban Center

Aerial view of Luzhou city and the confluence of the Yangtze and Tuo Rivers during the final descent.

Sit on the right for the best perspective of the Yangtze River during the descent into Luzhou Airport (LZO). Late afternoon flights offer stunning golden hour lighting over the Guizhou mountains, as the sun will be on the opposite side of the aircraft.

Left Side Highlights
8.1
🏙️

Foshan Urban Sprawl

Dense urban landscape of the Pearl River Delta immediately following takeoff from Guangzhou.

⛰️

Guizhou Karst Peaks

Infinite clusters of limestone cone hills throughout southern Guizhou, part of the South China Karst UNESCO site.

🛤️

High-Speed Rail Network

The intricate Gui-Guang high-speed rail line weaving through tunnels and over massive bridges.

🏞️

Chishui River Valley

Deeply carved valleys known for red sandstone cliffs and the famous 'River of Wine' landscape.

Choose a window seat forward of the wing to avoid engine heat distortion. In the morning, this side faces the sun, so glare can be intense; midday or afternoon flights provide better lighting for photography of the karst terrain.
