Which side of the plane to sit from Fuzhou Changle International Airport (Fuzhou) to Longdongbao Airport (Guiyang)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior vantage point for the UNESCO-listed Wuyi Mountains shortly after takeoff and provides a broader perspective of the massive river systems and urban centers of central China.
Fuzhou Urban Vista
A grand aerial view of Fuzhou's rapid urban expansion and the surrounding mountain basins.
Wuyi Mountains Core
The best angle to see the dramatic cliffs and peaks of this famous UNESCO World Heritage site.
Poyang Lake Region
The vast wetland plains south of China's largest freshwater lake are visible in the distance.
Xiang River Crossing
Bird's eye view of the wide Xiang River and the outskirts of the major industrial city of Changsha.
Guizhou Plateau Rise
Observe the dramatic geographical 'step' as the aircraft climbs from the central plains onto the high plateau.
Morning flights are ideal for the right side to catch the sunrise reflecting off the rivers. Keep your camera ready about 15-20 minutes after takeoff for the most rugged sections of the Wuyi Mountains.
Min River Estuary
Captivating views of the river branching into the East China Sea immediately after departure from Fuzhou.
Southern Wuyi Range
The southern fringes of the massive mountain chain that divides Fujian and Jiangxi provinces.
Gan River Basin
Visuals of the winding Gan River as the flight traverses the agricultural heartland of Jiangxi.
Hunan Hill Country
Densely forested rolling hills and hidden valleys characteristic of the southern Hunan landscape.
Guizhou Karst Peaks
Spectacular views of the iconic 'Ten Thousand Peaks' limestone formations during the descent into Guiyang.
Sit on the left for softer lighting during midday flights to avoid direct sun glare. Pay close attention during the final 20 minutes of the flight; the karst terrain in Guizhou is exceptionally photogenic from this side.
