Yangtze River Meanders
Follow the silver thread of the Chang Jiang as it winds through the plains of Anhui and Hubei.
Dabie Mountains
Dense, forested mountain ranges providing a stark contrast to the surrounding agricultural plains.
Wuhan Skyline
On clear days, the dense cluster of skyscrapers and iconic bridges over the Yangtze are visible to the north.
Wulingyuan Karst Peaks
The spectacular limestone pillars and deep ravines of the Zhangjiajie National Forest Park during the descent.
Tianmen Mountain
The famous 'Heaven's Gate' natural arch is often visible just before touchdown at Dayong Airport.
The right side is the definitive choice for photography enthusiasts. As the plane descends into Zhangjiajie, the terrain transforms into the iconic 'Avatar' mountains. Try to book an afternoon flight to have the sun behind you, illuminating the limestone cliffs in golden hues. Watch for the dramatic change from flat plains to vertical rock walls in the final 20 minutes of the flight.

Choose the left side for morning flights to avoid the harsh southern sun glare. This side is better for observing the extensive lake systems and river deltas of Central China. On the final approach into DYG, keep an eye out for the massive cliffs of the southern Zhangjiajie range.
