Fuzhou Skyline
A comprehensive view of the dense urban core and the Min River winding through the city center.
Wuyi Mountain Range
Distant views of the UNESCO World Heritage site's steep cliffs and deep river valleys to the north.
Mount Longhu
The 'Dragon and Tiger Mountain' features unique Danxia landforms visible during the mid-flight cruise.
Li River Valley
Iconic views of the winding Li River as it flows through the heart of the karst forest.
Guilin Karst Peaks
The stunning 'Forest of Peaks' is most visible from this side during the final descent into Liangjiang International.
The right side is essential for the iconic Guilin approach. Sit forward of the wing to ensure the engine doesn't block the view of the limestone towers. For evening flights, the golden hour light creates incredible shadows across the mountain ridges, enhancing the depth of the landscape.
