Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers spectacular views of inland China's natural geography, including the rugged Dabie and Wuyi mountain ranges and the massive Poyang Lake.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
⛰️

Dabie Mountains

A major mountain range providing dramatic forested ridges along the border of Henan and Anhui.

💧

Poyang Lake

China's largest freshwater lake, identifiable by its massive expanse and intricate wetland systems.

🏔️

Wuyi Mountains

UNESCO World Heritage site known for its stunning karst-like peaks and ancient tea-growing valleys.

🏞️

Min River Basin

The winding Min River carving through the steep, green hills of northern Fujian.

⛰️

Lushan Mountain

Distant views of this famous scenic peak located near the northern shore of Poyang Lake.

The right side is significantly more scenic for this route. Look for Poyang Lake approximately 45 minutes into the flight. Afternoon flights are ideal for the right side as the sun highlights the textures of the Wuyi mountain range to the west.

Left Side Highlights
6.5
🏙️

Zhengzhou Cityscape

Aerial view of the Henan capital's urban sprawl shortly after takeoff from CGO airport.

🌾

Central China Plains

A vast patchwork of agricultural fields across Henan and Anhui provinces.

🌊

Yangtze River Crossing

Glimpses of the mighty Yangtze River as it winds through the lower basin toward the delta.

🏖️

Fujian Coastline

Views of the East China Sea and the rugged coastal inlets as the flight turns for its final approach.

Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid direct sun glare. While primarily overland, you may catch a glimpse of the distant coastline near Ningde and Fuzhou as the plane begins its descent into FOC.
