Qiantang River
Aerial view of the massive river mouth and the Hangzhou skyline immediately after departure.

Yellow River Gorges
See the river cutting through deep canyons as it snakes between the Shaanxi and Shanxi provinces.
For the best lighting on the Loess Plateau's intricate valleys, choose an afternoon flight to avoid direct southern sun glare. Keep your camera ready about 60 to 70 minutes after takeoff for the most dramatic terrain transitions.

Taihang Mountains
The distinctive eastern cliff-like edge of the plateau, providing sharp geographic contrast against the North China Plain.
Ordos Grasslands
The high-altitude plateau landscape of Inner Mongolia, featuring semi-arid plains and modern energy infrastructure during descent.
