A stunning look at the 'Mountain City' skyline and the confluence of the Jialing and Yangtze rivers immediately after takeoff.
The Three Gorges
Dramatic views of the Yangtze River carving through the Wushan mountains, offering a glimpse of the reservoir's scale.
Wuhan Urban Cluster
Detailed views of the tri-city area of Wuhan and its numerous Yangtze River bridges during the middle of the flight.
Taihu Lake
One of China's largest freshwater lakes, appearing as a massive expanse of blue just before landing at Benniu Airport.
Jiangnan Water Towns
The intricate network of canals and green fields characteristic of the lower Yangtze River Delta during the final descent.
This is the premier side for river views. In the late afternoon, this side experiences the 'Golden Hour' lighting over the Yangtze River. Passengers should watch closely about 20 minutes after takeoff for the start of the Gorges. During descent, look south to spot the vast Taihu Lake, which signifies you are minutes away from Changzhou.
