Sandu'ao Harbor
A massive natural harbor in Fujian filled with thousands of floating fish farms and wooden houses.
Zhoushan Archipelago
Hundreds of green islands scattered across the East China Sea, often surrounded by fishing fleets.
Yangtze River Estuary
Observe the distinct line where the silt-heavy yellow river water meets the blue ocean, teeming with cargo ships.
Laoshan Mountain
The highest peak on China's coastline, visible as you descend into the Qingdao area.
Old Qingdao Coast
The iconic 'Red Tiles, Green Trees, Blue Sea' aesthetic of the historical German-influenced city center.
The right side is highly recommended for coastal scenery. Aim for a morning flight to have the sun behind you for vibrant colors. Keep a close eye out when crossing the Yangtze River mouth to see the dramatic color transition of the water. During the descent, this side offers the best views of the iconic Jiaozhou Bay and the Laoshan scenic area.
