Which side of the plane to sit from Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport (Chongqing) to Liuzhou Bailian Airport (Liuzhou)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior perspective of the dramatic Dalou mountain range and the iconic high-altitude karst topography of the Guizhou plateau before descending into the peak-filled landscape of Liuzhou.
Jinfo Mountain
Look for the massive, flat-topped limestone plateau of Jinfo Mountain, a UNESCO World Heritage site, visible shortly after departing Chongqing.
Guizhou Karst Plateau
A stunning 'sea of peaks' featuring thousands of small, conical limestone hills characteristic of the world-famous Guizhou karst topography.
Northern Guangxi Ridges
Dramatic high-altitude ridges covered in dense vegetation as the flight crosses the provincial border into Guangxi.
Liuzhou City Peaks
Iconic limestone pillars and hills rising directly from the urban center, including views of the surrounding 'Mountain City' landscape.
Choose a window seat on the right for the most dramatic mountain vistas. Afternoon flights provide excellent lighting as the sun illuminates the western faces of the karst peaks. In winter, look for the 'cloud sea' effect where only the peaks poke through the fog.
Chongqing Urban Core
Aerial view of the dense skyscrapers and the confluence of the Yangtze and Jialing Rivers shortly after takeoff.
Eastern Dalou Slopes
Observation of the rugged, forested slopes that define the transition from the Sichuan Basin to the southern highlands.
Liu River Meanders
The winding path of the Liu River creates intricate loops through the landscape during the final approach into Liuzhou.
Guangxi Greenery
Vast stretches of lush evergreen forests and bamboo groves typical of the humid subtropical climate in northern Guangxi.
The left side is preferable if the flight path takes a more easterly departure, providing a better look at the sprawling Chongqing metropolis. During morning flights, this side will be shaded, which is better for photography without glare.
