Our Recommendation
7.8

Left Side of the Plane

The left side offers superior views of Northern Jiangxi's massive water bodies, including the distant Poyang Lake, and the jagged granite peaks of Sanqingshan National Park as you cross into Zhejiang.

Left Side Highlights
7.8
🏙️

Changsha Urban Landscape

Aerial view of the Xiang River and the rapidly expanding urban skyline of Changsha immediately after takeoff.

💧

Poyang Lake Basin

Views of China's largest freshwater lake to the north, appearing as a vast silver expanse depending on seasonal water levels.

🏔️

Sanqingshan National Park

Glimpses of the UNESCO-listed granite pillars and unique rock formations peaking through the clouds in eastern Jiangxi.

🏘️

Quzhou Plain

The transition from the rugged mountains to the flatter, developed agricultural plains of western Zhejiang province.

🌊

Ou River Basin

Following the winding path of the Ou River as the plane begins its descent toward the coastal city of Wenzhou.

Book a window seat on the left for morning flights to avoid the harsh southern sun. Watch closely about 25 minutes into the flight for the shimmering Poyang Lake to the north. In winter, the mountains in Zhejiang may show light snow dusting, enhancing the contrast of the terrain.

Right Side Highlights
7.2
⛰️

Luoxiao Mountain Range

Dense, green mountain ridges that define the border between Hunan and Jiangxi provinces.

🌾

Wugongshan Meadows

High-altitude grasslands that appear as velvet-green carpets on the mountain tops during the summer months.

🌲

Wuyanling Nature Reserve

A vast expanse of subtropical evergreen broad-leaved forests as you enter southern Zhejiang's mountainous interior.

🏙️

Wenzhou City Skyline

A dramatic view of the high-rise buildings and the bustling port area during the final approach into Longwan.

The right side is ideal for afternoon flights as the sun moves behind the plane, providing excellent lighting for photos of the Lishui mountains. Keep an eye out for the tiered terraced fields hidden in the valleys of southern Zhejiang during the final 15 minutes of the flight.
