Which side of the plane to sit from Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport (Guangzhou) to Wenzhou Longwan International Airport (Wenzhou)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a spectacular vantage point of the South China Sea coastline, passing over major port cities and concluding with a scenic approach over the East China Sea islands.
Pearl River Delta
The massive urban sprawl of the Greater Bay Area, including the complex bridge networks of Dongguan.
Daya Bay
Clear turquoise waters and rugged coastal peninsulas near the Huizhou shoreline.
Taiwan Strait Shipping Lanes
A view of the busy maritime corridors with dozens of cargo ships visible on the horizon.
Nanji Islands
A protected marine archipelago with white sand beaches visible during the descent into Wenzhou.
Wenzhou Port
The massive industrial infrastructure and bridge crossings of the Ou River delta.
The right side is ideal for late afternoon flights, offering golden hour views over the East China Sea. During the descent, the aircraft frequently performs a U-turn over the ocean, providing a panoramic view of the Wenzhou coastline and the Ou River estuary. Choose a seat behind the wing to capture the contrast between the blue sea and the mountainous Zhejiang coast.
Nanling Mountains
Dense green ridges marking the transition between Guangdong and the inland provinces.
Wuyi Mountain Foothills
Dramatic topography known for its ancient tea plantations and jagged limestone peaks.
Upper Min River
The winding river system of Fujian carving deep valleys through the mountainous terrain.
Lishui Urban Area
A view of the mountainous city tucked into the valleys of southern Zhejiang province.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid the harsh glare of the southern sun. This side is superior for viewing the interior mist-covered peaks of Fujian, which are particularly beautiful during the spring and summer rainy seasons.
