Our Recommendation
8.2

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers superior views of China's largest freshwater lake, the poetic peaks of Mount Lu, and the iconic Macau city skyline and casinos during the final approach.

Right Side Highlights
8.2
💧

Poyang Lake

Incredible views of China's largest freshwater lake, especially striking during high water seasons.

⛰️

Mount Lu (Lushan)

The famous UNESCO World Heritage peaks rising sharply from the surrounding plains.

🌄

Nanling Mountains

Dense, green mountain ridges that form the natural border between Jiangxi and Guangdong.

🎰

Macau Peninsula

Close-up views of the Grand Lisboa, Macau Tower, and the Cotai Strip casinos during descent.

The right side is ideal for landmark spotting. Look out for Poyang Lake about 30-40 minutes into the flight. On the final approach into Macau International Airport (typically Runway 16), the right side provides a direct, spectacular view of the Macau skyline and the bridges connecting the peninsula to Taipa.

Left Side Highlights
7.5
🌊

Yangtze River Crossing

Aerial view of the Yangtze winding through the plains near Jiujiang shortly after departure.

🏔️

Wuyi Mountain Foothills

Distant views of the rugged, misty terrain of the Wuyi range to the southeast.

🏙️

Shenzhen Skyline

The dense cluster of skyscrapers in the Nanshan and Futian districts as you enter the Pearl River Delta.

🌉

HZMB Bridge

The Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge stretching across the sea like a white ribbon.

Sit on the left if you want a panoramic view of the massive infrastructure of the Pearl River Delta. If the flight lands from the south (Runway 34), you will get an excellent view of the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge and the artificial islands. Morning flights are best to avoid the afternoon haze over the delta.
