🌊

Taihu Lake

One of China's largest freshwater lakes, visible shortly after reaching cruising altitude.

⛰️

Mount Tai

The most famous of the Five Great Mountains of China, standing out in the Shandong landscape.

🏞️

Yellow River Meanders

The distinctive silty waters of the Huanghe as the flight crosses into northern China.

🏙️

Tianjin Western Suburbs

Dense urban planning and the Hai River winding through the city on final approach.

Sit on the left for the best chance to see Mount Tai mid-flight. For afternoon flights, this side may face the sun, so keep your window shade adjusted to manage glare while spotting the Grand Canal path.
