đŸī¸

Zhoushan Archipelago

Aerial view of the rugged island chain and the intricate waterways of the Zhoushan district.

🌉

Jintang Bridge

One of the world's longest sea-crossing bridges, visible shortly after departure from HSN.

Dishui Lake

The perfectly circular artificial lake in Shanghai's Lingang New City, a landmark during the descent.

đŸ—ī¸

Shanghai Free Trade Zone

The sprawling industrial and high-tech landscape of the Lingang area near the Pudong coastline.

Sit on the left for the best views of the Jintang Bridge during takeoff. As the flight is very short, be prepared as soon as the plane reaches cruising altitude. Afternoon flights provide excellent lighting for photographing the circular Dishui Lake without glare.

Right Side Highlights

â›Šī¸

Putuoshan Island

The sacred Buddhist site featuring the Grand Guanyin Statue, visible depending on the departure vector.

đŸšĸ

Yangshan Deep Water Port

The world's largest container port situated on an island in the middle of the East China Sea.

🌊

Shengsi Islands

Clusters of small, scenic islands scattered across the East China Sea horizon.

🌉

Donghai Bridge

The 32-kilometer bridge connecting mainland Shanghai to the Yangshan offshore port.

The right side is ideal for spotting the offshore Yangshan Port. If the air is clear, look for the 'Guanyin of the South Sea' statue on Putuoshan immediately after takeoff. Morning flights offer the best light for the eastern sea views.
