Our Recommendation

Right Side of the Plane

The right side offers a superior view of the sprawling Pearl River Delta, the massive Poyang Lake, and the scenic Chao Lake during the descent into Hefei.

Right Side Highlights
8.5
🌆

Shenzhen Skyline

A panoramic view of the Nanshan and Futian districts' dense clusters of skyscrapers.

🌊

Gan River Basin

The winding main artery of Jiangxi province carving through the verdant landscape.

💧

Poyang Lake

China's largest freshwater lake, offering a shimmering expanse of water and wetlands.

🛶

Chao Lake

One of China's five largest freshwater lakes, visible just southeast of Hefei during the final approach.

The right side is ideal for afternoon flights as the sun moves west. Poyang Lake is most impressive during the summer rainy season when water levels are high. During descent, look for the urban expansion of Hefei stretching toward the shores of Chao Lake.
