Our Recommendation
8.5

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the dramatic transition from the 'water towns' of Zhejiang to the world-famous karst limestone formations of Guangxi, including potential glimpses of Qiandao Lake.

Right Side Highlights

đŸī¸

Qiandao Lake

Shortly after takeoff, look for the 'Thousand Island Lake' with its distinctive turquoise waters and emerald isles.

â›Šī¸

Mount Heng

One of China's Five Great Mountains, visible as the flight traverses the central Hunan province.

🌊

Xiang River

The iconic river of Hunan, often bustling with river traffic and surrounded by dense urban centers.

đŸ”ī¸

Guangxi Karst Landscape

The highlight of the trip: dramatic limestone 'sugarloaf' peaks rising abruptly from the flat plains.

đŸžī¸

Yong River Bend

The winding river that snakes through Nanning, providing a picturesque guide to the runway.

The right side is ideal for afternoon flights as the sun will be on the opposite side, reducing window glare. Keep your camera ready 20-30 minutes before landing for the most spectacular karst mountain views as you enter Guangxi airspace.

Nanling Mountains

Rugged, forested terrain forming the natural divide between Central and South China.

đŸ™ī¸

Nanning Eastern Suburbs

View the rapid urban expansion and green belts of the 'Green City' during the final approach.

Choose the left side for morning flights to enjoy the soft morning light over the Zhejiang hills, though beware of direct glare. This side provides a clearer view of the vast Gan River basin during the mid-flight phase.
