Caspian Sea Coast
The contrasting shoreline where the arid plains meet the turquoise waters of the world's largest inland body of water.
Kazakh Steppes
The vast, golden northern reaches of Kazakhstan visible as the flight path skirts the border.
Magnitogorsk Industry
Dramatic views of the massive industrial complexes and smoke stacks of the southern Ural region.
Ob River Basin
The massive, winding silver threads of the Ob and its tributaries cutting through the Siberian landscape.
The Mighty Yenisei
A grand view of one of the world's largest river systems as you descend into the Krasnoyarsk region.
The right side is ideal for morning flights to see the sun reflecting off the Caspian Sea. The highlight is the approach to Krasnoyarsk; the Yenisei River is best viewed from this side as the plane turns for landing. Seasonal tip: In autumn, the transition from golden steppes to the deep greens of the Siberian forests is exceptionally vivid.
