Wuyi Mountain Range
Cross over the UNESCO World Heritage site featuring jagged peaks and deep, lush valleys of northern Fujian province.
Poyang Lake
Gaze upon China's largest freshwater lake, observing the unique seasonal water levels and the network of surrounding wetlands.
Gan River Meanders
Watch the intricate loops of the Gan River as it flows northward through the Jiangxi basin toward the Yangtze.
Wuhan East Lake
On the descent, enjoy views of Donghu (East Lake), one of the largest urban lakes in China, surrounded by green parks.
Sit on the left for the best morning light during early flights to avoid harsh glare. During the summer monsoon season, watch for massive cumulus cloud formations over the Wuyi Mountains. As you approach Wuhan, look for the distinct transition from the rugged Fujian hills to the flat, water-rich Jianghan Plain.
