Amakusa Islands
Scenic clusters of islands off the coast of Kumamoto and Nagasaki known for their rugged beauty.
East China Sea
Expansive views of the deep blue sea, often filled with large cargo ships traversing international shipping lanes.
Victoria Harbour
The world-famous view of the Hong Kong Island skyscrapers and the Kowloon peninsula during an eastern approach.
Big Buddha
Depending on the landing pattern, views of the Tian Tan Buddha and the Po Lin Monastery on Lantau Island.
Sit forward of the wing to ensure an unobstructed view of the Hong Kong skyline. If landing on Runway 25 (approaching from the east), the left side provides the most dramatic views of Central and Wan Chai. Afternoon flights are ideal as the sun will be behind you or to the west, illuminating the city for photography.

Taiwanese Peaks
On very clear days, the high mountain ranges of Taiwan can be spotted on the distant horizon.
Pearl River Delta
The massive urban and industrial landscape of Shenzhen and the surrounding Greater Bay Area.
HK-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge
A spectacular view of the world's longest sea-crossing bridge as it snakes across the delta.
HKG Airport Layout
An excellent view of the airport's massive reclamation project and its three-runway system upon arrival.
The right side is best for those interested in modern engineering, specifically the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge. This side also avoids the harsh southern sun during the majority of the flight heading southwest, which helps prevent cabin glare and heat. Watch for the massive cargo ports of Shenzhen during the descent.
