Our Recommendation
8.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers the most dramatic views of the Xijiang River and the iconic limestone Karst topography as the flight crosses into Guangxi province.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
🌳

Baiyun Mountain

The lush peaks of Baiyun Mountain are often visible to the north right after departing Guangzhou.

🌊

Xijiang River Valley

Follow the wide, winding path of the Xijiang River, the main tributary of the Pearl River system.

🏔️

Guangxi Karst Peaks

Dramatically pointed limestone mountains start appearing as you approach the Guigang area.

🏢

Nanning Skyline

A clear view of the 'Green City' and its modern skyscrapers during the descent into Wuxu Airport.

Best for afternoon flights when the sun is to the south, illuminating the Karst formations with a warm glow. Keep your camera ready about 30 minutes into the flight for the best mountain views.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🏙️

Pearl River Delta

Bird's-eye view of the dense urban sprawl of Guangzhou and Foshan immediately after takeoff.

⛰️

Yunjun Mountains

Dense green ridges of the Yunjun range that separate the Pearl River Delta from western Guangdong.

💧

Yong River Meanders

The deep blue curves of the Yong River as it flows through the southern outskirts of Nanning.

Choose a morning flight to have the sun behind you, preventing glare while photographing the Pearl River Delta. This side is better for seeing the industrial heart of the region.
