Loess Plateau Terraces
Incredible patterns of agricultural terracing carved into the highly erodible yellow soil of the plateau.
Taihang Mountain Wall
The dramatic 'precipice' where the plateau ends and the terrain drops thousands of feet to the plains below.
Hebei Urban Centers
Views of major industrial hubs and the dense network of high-speed rail lines connecting the region.
Tianjin Port & Bohai Bay
During descent, the massive shipping lanes and cargo terminals of the world's busiest ports come into view.
Morning flights provide the best illumination for the Loess Plateau erosion patterns. Keep your camera ready about 20 minutes before landing to capture the scale of the Tianjin Port and the Bohai Sea coastline, which is most vibrant in the summer months.

Mu Us Desert Fringe
The northern edges of the Mu Us Desert showing unique sand stabilization patterns and arid dunes.
Great Wall Remnants
Ancient sections of the Great Wall snaking across the border of Inner Mongolia and Shanxi province.
Northern Taihang Peaks
The rugged, often snow-dusted peaks that form the natural boundary of the high plateau.
Beijing Perimeter
On clear days, the distant northern sprawl of the capital city can be seen against the mountain backdrop.
Sit on the left if you are an architecture or history enthusiast; the Great Wall sections are easier to spot with afternoon lighting when shadows are longer. During winter, look for frozen reservoirs in the mountains north of Beijing.
