Which side of the plane to sit from Changsha Huanghua International Airport (Changcha) to Changzhou Benniu Airport (Changzhou)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side of the aircraft offers an unparalleled view of some of China's most iconic natural landmarks, including the vast Poyang Lake and the world-famous granite peaks of Huangshan.
Poyang Lake
View China's largest freshwater lake; its size and shape vary significantly depending on the seasonal water levels.
Lushan National Park
Spot the mist-covered peaks of Lushan, a historic mountain range renowned for its cultural and spiritual significance.
Mount Huang (Huangshan)
In clear weather, the jagged granite peaks and 'sea of clouds' of the Yellow Mountains are visible to the southeast.
Lake Tai (Taihu)
As the plane enters the final descent into the Changzhou area, the massive expanse of Lake Tai becomes visible on the horizon.
This is the premier side for nature lovers. For the best views of Huangshan, choose a flight departing around midday when the sun is high, reducing shadows in the mountain valleys. In winter, the snow-capped peaks of the Jiangxi and Anhui mountains provide exceptional contrast.
Yangtze River Bends
Observe the massive curves of the Yangtze River as it flows through the Anhui corridor toward the East China Sea.
Nanjing Skyline
During the descent, witness the sprawling urban expansion of Nanjing, featuring the iconic Zifeng Tower.
Jiangsu Wetlands
A patchwork of rice paddies and intricate canal networks typical of the lower Yangtze River delta region.
The left side is preferable for morning flights to avoid the harsh southern sun. During the final approach into CZX, keep an eye out for the Yangtze River bridges which are often visible even from higher altitudes.
