Which side of the plane to sit from Fuzhou Changle International Airport (Fuzhou) to Nanning Wuxu Airport (Nanning)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the dramatic inland mountain ranges of Fujian and the spectacular karst limestone topography as you approach Nanning.
Daiyun Mountains
Fly over the high-altitude, lush green peaks of central Fujian, often shrouded in a picturesque sea of clouds.
Wanlv Lake
Spot the deep blue expanse of Guangdong's largest reservoir, surrounded by thousands of emerald islets.
Guangxi Karst Formations
As the plane enters Guangxi, the terrain transforms into iconic sugar-loaf limestone hills and jagged peaks.
Yong River Valley
Views of the winding Yong River snaking through the lush, subtropical landscape during the descent into Nanning.
Fuzhou Skyline
Excellent views of Fuzhou's urban center and the surrounding mountain bowl shortly after takeoff.
The right side is the 'mountain side.' For the best karst landscape views, choose a late afternoon flight when the low sun casts long shadows, emphasizing the unique shapes of the limestone hills. Keep your camera ready during the final 20 minutes of the flight as the descent over Guangxi is exceptionally scenic.
Min River Estuary
Aerial views of the wide river mouth and the coastal wetlands immediately after departure from FOC.
Chaoshan Megacity
Observe the dense urban sprawl of Shantou and the surrounding coastal plains of eastern Guangdong.
Pearl River Delta
Distant glimpses of the massive infrastructure and skylines of the Greater Bay Area to the south.
South China Sea Coast
On clear days, the shimmering coastline and distant shipping lanes are visible along the horizon.
Sit on the left for morning flights to avoid direct sunlight. This side is better for spotting the transition from the rugged Fujian coast to the flat, industrialized Pearl River Delta. Watch for the massive bridge networks in the distance if visibility is high.
